Topic Miscellany.

I tried going to work today, thinking I would just push through being really sick and be fine.

Nu uh.

I worked approximately two hours before I went to Christy-Anne, who was the shift manager at the time, and begged her to let me go home early if we could get someone to come in for me. Somehow, they managed it and I got to go home.

But actually, I didn't go home. I was going to go home, but then I switched signals and drove to the doctor. I just couldn't take it anymore.

I explained to the doctor that I've been sick several times since the New Year and that I just wanted to be better already and he agreed. He gave me a shot of cortisol (or cortisone? I don't know...) and prescribed an intense cough medicine to take at night, some new antibiotic, as well as a decongestant and all that good stuff. I'm really hoping that once I get better from this, I'll stay better for the better of two weeks. Preferably even longer than that. Maybe I could stay not sick for several months. Wow, how nice that'd be.

They weighed me. I'm down nine pounds since my last visit. Yay for being pop-free!

Anyway. Subject change.

So I was thinking about some stuff and I realized that romantic relationships shouldn't be discussed on blogs. I should've picked up on that little fact when Jason Killingsworth posted one day, completely out of the blue, that he was engaged and getting married the following Spring. He dropped a bomb when he wrote that because he hadn't mentioned any involvement with a girl prior to that post. I thought to myself, "Married?! To a girl named Summer?! Who is Summer?!?! WHAT??!" It was crazy. But I understand why he did it. I respect it. It just makes sense. That kind of stuff is between you and the other person and if your close friends and family want to know about it, you can call them and dish it out there. Otherwise, it's just not for the web. So much nicer that way, I think.

Other subject change.

I talked to my dad today. He is so great. Like, he is just a really great man. Mom scored with my dad, I have to say. He's just got a huge heart and he's never afraid to embrace change or make his life better. He's always seeking to learn things and be a better person. I just love him. Just... What a great guy, my dad.

Conclusion.

I'm ready for good things.
