*yawn*
Wow Kate, way to go on not blogging for a while! Go me. *sarcasm*
I’m not really in a great mood right now but I was tired of my blog looking inhabited. Does that word make sense in that sentence? It sounded good in my head at least. So a lot has happened since I last blogged but I don’t wanna go there right now. All I want to do is sleep. I am tired and more than that, my throat is killing me. Three days ago, I woke up and my throat was hurting. Usually this wouldn’t bother me but now it does because not only is my throat hurting but I’m on my period, too. Yay for pain. I assumed the sore throat was due to me sleeping with my mouth open since my room is always cold at night since that is how I sleep. Boy was I wrong. Yesterday I took a nap and woke up with my throat hurting ten times worse to the point I couldn’t swallow. So my mom being the dandy nurse she is took a peak at my throat and almost puked. I was like “OMG mom!! What’s wrong??” So she told me to look and I did. The back of my throat was blood red and swollen. That wasn’t the gross part though. Evidently I had puss pockets all over my tonsil area. It was sick but yet cool and intriguing at the same time. I made Rob look. Lol. So did Selena and my sister Beth. Ha, I was a science experiment.
So today, I went to the doctor since obviously puss pockets isn’t a good thing. They swabbed my throat and all that goodness but the strep test came back negative. My mom said she wouldn’t be surprised if when they sent it off it grew into strep. The lady who swabbed my throat was scared I was going to puke on her but I really wanted to tell her to swab the puss area because I wanted to know what it was darnit! She didn’t though. In fact, it felt like the swabbed the back side area of my mouth instead of the back of my throat. So the doctor gave me an z-pack, something else, and then Lortabs for pain. Dude, he gave me Lortab 7.5 which knock my ass out. He asked if I need anything for pain and I said yes cause I thought he’d give me this throat stuff like I got last time but he gave me Lortabs. I find that hilarious but I took two already, one when I got home since I didn’t sleep last night and one a few minutes ago so I can sleep. The rest I’ll save for a day I have a migraine. I don’t like to feel all fuzzy and loopy from medicine so I don’t take pain killers often.
The only thing that sucks about being sick is I am a bitch on wheels and I know it. My poor boyfriend has had to endure quite a lot of bitchiness from my period and then me being sick. My whole period issue irritated me. I take Yazmin because if I don’t, I will never have a period. Well I was supposed to start Sunday and I didn’t until today so I was freaking out. I took a pregnancy test since a) I’m sexually active and b) I was paranoid because I usually start Sunday night. When I took Ortho Tri Cyclin, it always started on time but it never has with Yazmin. Granted my periods are nowhere near as bad now but still, I want to know when I am going to! Ya know? My mom advised me to wait at least three months taking the medicine on time. This is my first month since I messed up last month thanks to Wal-Mart closing on Labor Day. Grr.
Anyways, I will blog more later. This Tuesday I leave for Gatlinburg. I’ll explain all about that later. I’ll post some pics of us in Gatlinburg next weekend hopefully! Until next time, later gators!!
