i've been working for the army every day. missed the first week the semester to be on orders. at least i'm getting paid, right? well yesterday i woke up feeling.... bleh. i mean bleh. my throat was swollen beyond belief. not sore, just swollen. like, my whole neck feels like it's three feet around. and my whole body hurt. it hurts to breath, sit, talk, walk, pretty much it hurts to live. didn't feel any better today so i decided to go to the doctor. and the results are in. ready? oh yes, i have mono, everyone. what???? i've never had mono in my life. nor have i had strep, or lice, or any of those other things people often get. the silly doctor seems to think i can just take two to six weeks off to rest up. bull-ony. i'm hoping that she (and the test results) were wrong. i'm going for a second opinion next week. for now, i get to stay in bed (yeah right). oh, and did i mention no alcohol for six weeks? jesus, is she trying to kill me????

so that's it for me. multiple people have suggested that this is just the god's way of giving me some extra time to work on my thesis. oh yeah, i guess i should start that thing....


always.....

oooooh shit....

Wasting the winter away WITH mono WHILE writing sounds exotically Victorian. It could be very elegant.
