alysten | Oh what a week

This has been one of those weeks. I have been very thoroughly sick as a dog. It has become know as the "what diety's Wheaties did you pee in alysten?" Friday started with a tickle and low-grade fever. Saturday, temp was normal so I went to Bhakail Commons, and played/sat around most of the day. Right about the middle of Tad dinner, I kinda disintegrated (more so than normal). We all blamed the drugs, but in hindsight, this is how my body behaves just before a major, kick you in the butt sickness. Its like it has to take all remaining energy out of my body in one uber big burst, so that it can get on with the business of being sick.

The hit list includes:

3 days of fevers into the 102+ range. Monday night was almost go the er night at a 102.9.
The flu. Who gets the flu in May you ask? Apparently it's me
A secondary chest infection. Go Amoxicillian + Clayulanate Potassium.
An abscessed tooth. Monday night it looked like I had the mumps. Now I have to find a dentist.
New dentist sends me to the oral surgeon. Apparently its a really bad, but early.Yay more Amoxicillian!
Subsequent oral surgery, emergency tooth removal and bone graft. Yay more drugs and squishy, easy to eat foods.

BBE has been very diligently bringing me sprite, water, tissues, Motrin and catering to my whiny barely able to move around the apartment with out falling over self. The cat sensing my supreme sickness has decided that the way to cool me off is to lay on me with as much surface area as she has in her little 8lb, overly furry, mini maine coon body. Work has been scattered in and around various appointments and naps. Fortunately I have a sit down job and a lap top. Woo working from home.

Today is the first day in a week that I actually feel normal-ish. Though I did some stoop sitting tonight and that sapped out any remaining reserves I had. I was thinking I would go to work tomorrow. Now Im thinking maybe not. Roses is clean out of the equation, much to my and several other people's sadness. I even got Mr. McWoofypants, my traveling/tent companion, a new squeeky "porn" ball.

On the other hand, sooper sekrit project #3 was completed. And I am very, very excited on the outcome. Pictures forthcoming soon (but not yet), y'all just have to wait.
