i got nothing

well I got something but I got nothing for the blogospheres lately.

So I have been sick, I mean really sick, like I haven't been sick since I was a kid. It started on Wednesday, about the time I finally got over my night out with Tracy. I had a little of the postnasaldrip crap and it was giving me a little tickle in my throat. Well Friday morning my voice really started to go. I had to work, so I just sounded like a really coughcough sexy phone sex operator. (no comments from any of my tables about my voice) Friday night I was in agony by the time my shift got done. Saturday I comtimplated calling in sick, but needed the money so opted to give it a go. What a mistake, by the time I got home saturday night I thought I was swallowing razor blades. Why is it that when you have a sore throat your body produces more saliva? Anywho, I couldn't stand it anylonger, Sunday morning, I sat up in bed and declaired "I can't take it anymore, I'm going to the Emergeny Room!"

go to the ER, walk right in (complete shocker!) Big Guy ER Doctor, says "open up and say AHH, Um, well here is some Hydrocodone pills and an antibiotic." he brought back a piece of paper that said I have acute laryngitis and a possible viral throat infection.

Now a normal person probably would have questioned Big Guy ER Doctor about why the antibiotic when he thought it was a viral infection, but I heard the words "Hydrocodone blahblahblahblahblah..." and knew that that stuff would take the edge off the razor blades I was swallowing and didn't question anything.

But this morning, I woke up at 4:30 in excrusiating pain, went down stairs took a Codone pill, and one and a half hour later, it hadn't made a difference. I got up at 8:30 and took another one and right at the moment I think it finally kicked in. Cause I'm feelin REALLY loopy!

Anyway, I got a phone call into my regular Dr this morning and she isn't in on mondays, so they want me to come in tomorrow morning. I hope she can actually tell me what is going on inside my throat. In the mean time my and my bottle of Hydrocodne are gonna snuggle down on the couch and well, take a nap*




*don't worry about the kids, my brother** is here.



** well on second thought maybe a slight concern for the kids might be called for.

I am sooo sorry that you are feeling so horrible. I hope the antibiotics do the trick and you are back to normal soon!

All your comments on your pain pills made me chuckle. Got to love 'em!

Man, talk about leaving the chickens with the fox.

"Hey kids! Mama's all whacked out on goofballs. Come see what you're uncle's got stashed in the truck"

Sorry, it was just sitting there. Enjoy your goofballs.
