I'm Back!

I know that I've been MIA for a while now but I've been horribly sick. I have gone back to the specialist and have had a CT scan. It was very interesting. It took about 40 seconds and they had the results in about 4 minutes. It was really cool. He found out that I have a severe sinus infection. Every sinus cavity in my head that is supposed to have air in it (insert your joke here) is clogged/blocked/filled with junk from this cold. It's not pretty. He also found out that I don't have the sinus cavity above my eyes. I was born without one. Odd I know but there you have it. So, in the end, I am on a TON of meds. Most importantly, I'm on prednisone (a really nasty steroid) and 4000mg of Augmentin. Its nasty stuff.

I've gone back to work now. I feel like I'm a slug. I'm so medicated that I have no energy and no will to do anything. It's very sad. I overslept this morning by an hour and a half. Because of the steroid, they also prescribed ambien, a sleeping pill, and it doesn't wear off. I take it around 8 and it doesn't wear off until about noon the next day. Its not good.

speaking of which, i've gotta go. aparently the sleeping pills are kicking in...

peace, love...zzz

Glad you're on the road to recovery! Lame excuse for not blogging, but...

I understand the Prednisone. I take 5mg a day for anti-rejection. I will forever. Anyway, I STILL have insomnia and nothing they've given me really helps. So, I take catnaps whenever I can, like, when I'm driving to work (which means I'm as alert a driver as most of the "Q-tips" (old people) around here).

Hope you get better soon! Slug your sister for me. That'll help you feel better.

Listen buddy - no encouraging physical violence through a blog! I'm pretty sure that's against the rules...and besides, like she needs any encouragement!!

Well, if she DOES slug you, you of course have EVERY right to slug her back.

And then, after starting the fight, he calmly leaves...
