Poo

Is what I felt like this morning when I got up. I started feeling a little sick probably Tuesday. I propped my hand under my chin at some point and said OW! The gland by my tonsils on the left side was so swollen and tender. I was thinking oh crap here comes my quarterly sinus infection. I felt semi-ok Wednesday. I got home from work and curled up in a ball on the couch for about an hour and slept. I took a generic Zyrtec at about 10:30 and went to bed. Well, every time I take those, I remember why I don't want to take them any more. They make me feel loopy. Thursday morning at work, I felt like I was in slllllllllloooooooooowwwwwww moooooootion. I hated it all day and it was a 24 hour pill. Dang. I hate anything that doesn't make me feel normal. I felt retarded at work. Its like I couldn't think straight. So, I decided not to take another one last night.

Well, I woke up this morning at probably 4 am with snot running out of my nose. Ew gross I know. It is only my left head, so I call it. If you didn't know, I have two heads and the left one always seems to get me sick. Dang left head, get with it! So, only my left nostril was stopped up and running down my face! I had to blow my nose twice before actually getting up this morning. As my alarm goes off, I realized the bottom was falling out outside. It was thundering and lightening on top of making my backyard a pond. Talk about wanting to call in and go back to sleep. But noooooo, the good employee that I am...got up and went to work. haha I got to work and told my co-worker that I felt like poo. She then proceeded to get onto me and told me I shouldn't have come in and to leave right then and go to the doctor. I am hard headed and stayed to work at least half a day. I worked until 11:30 to get in my 4 hours and I left.

I ran to a doc in the box place close to the house that I always go to for these. She is going to know me by name soon I think. I just went in September. My gland is swollen, I have drainage, my left head is stopped up, and my left eye tends to water. She checked off on the doctor sheet that I officially have a sinus infection. Luckily, I was the first and only car to pull into the parking lot. Another guy came in right after me though. So, I was in and out of there. What is even more wonderful is that they have a pharmacy attached to the back. You walk back there and they get our prescriptions right away and you are on the go. Why does it take other pharmacies and hour or longer to get things ready for you when this place can almost just hand it to you? I don't know, but it is great. I got some sort of Z-pack. It doesn't look the same as I have had before, but it is still only a 5 day supply. She also gave me some spray to use twice a day to open my sinuses.

K10 made me be bad earlier today. I got to looking on eBay at some jeans that I have wanted for a while now. I couldn't find any of the Seven Dojo jeans that I want in my size. However, I did find some Lucky jeans that have only been worn twice. I placed a bid on them and hope that I win them for cheaper than I put in as my maximum bid. I am currently the highest bidder for $15.50. Yes! It does have a couple of days to go, but I max bid to $50. An almost brand new pair of Lucky jeans for $50? Awesome. If I win, I hope I like them and they fit. If not, I guess I will have to put them up for sale too. I will keep you posted on my ebaying. :)

Now, I am home watching HGTV trying to get some rest. I will eventually have to work on some homework this weekend. I think I have some semi-small projects due by Monday or Tuesday. I have to write 8 annotated bibliographies for an ethics research paper I am writing that compares and contrasts Exxon and BP. I am lucky so far that the first two scholarly articles I have read have actually been kind of interesting. Hopefully, I will be just as lucky on the rest. Each of the 8 have to be 150 to 200 words that summarize the article. I have to use at least half of these in the actual paper, so I really have to make sure they are something I want to use. I am really hoping I can write enough of these summaries and just make them my paper in the end. Hopefully.

I hope everyone has a great weekend. I am hoping to take it easy and rest. I'm waiting for my husband to get home with some Movie Gallery for a night in of movies. My favorite. Bring on the popcorn and candy. Oh wait. I already had my candy for the day...a Take 5. They are awesome. If you have never tried one, I suggest you do. Especially if you like chocolate dipped pretzels. I think it really tastes like those. Yum. Ok, I'm hungry now. I'm off....
