Walking Pneumonia's Got a Hold on Me.2003-02-16 - 7:15 p.m. So last night we went to Shark City for to see a band. Neither one of us wanted to go because we're both sick. We only went because I said we had to since I'm the one who made the plans, and my sis and Bob were meeting us up there. So we went. We played darts for a while. We listened to the bands. Then around 10:30 or so, my sister tells us that they didn't want to come out because they were tired, etc... We left about 11:30ish. I woke up this morning feeling like death, so I decided to make a trip to the Convenient Care place by my house at 8:30. Diagnosis: definite bronchitis, and possible pneumonia, and temporary asthma due to the other shit... Got loaded up with antibiotics, an inhaler, and was told to get Robitussin DM for the chest congestion. Downside to that was the fact that my whole family was coming for dinner at 4. I called them and warned them about the death shroud at my house, but they all said they'd come anyway. MW was also coming. So I left the doc's and went to the grocery store. Bought all the side-dish stuff and had my prescriptions filled. Came home just in time to get a page from MW saying that he was DYING. I talked to him on AIM for a bit and told him what my diagnosis was and suggested he might want to go get checked out too. Turns out he's got bronchitis too. But I have the other stuff, so I still win. ;-) So he told me he wasn't coming for dinner. I handled it very grown-up like and didn't give him any shit at all. (Y'all don't believe that crap, do ya? Yeah, I got pissy, but I was disappointed. This was the second Sunday he was supposed to be here, and then cancelled. Fuckin' men.) So anyhoo - I did as much pre-work on dinner as I could, took a shower, and laid down for the whole 15 minutes before they showed up. My sis and Bob ended up cancelling too. Something about decided they didn't want the 4 year old to catch pneumonia or some such bullshit. LOL So mom and Mike showed up at 3. We ate around 4:30 or so. They left at 6:40. Not too bad. Now I feel like shit and must go lie down and feel sorry for myself. :-) Hasta -- dmk. Looking back... Just Pix - 2005-02-08
