I haven't quite barfed yet actually, but feel like it. I am very deathly sick (hopefully not really). I am always sick for some reason or another. My doctor that I usually have here in Leavenworth was gone today and wouldn't be in until tomorrow, so I got some coocky old lady who didn't know what the hell she was talking about. She took a throat culture to see if I had Strep Throat, I didn't. The she took a nasal culture to see if I had the FLU, I don't. The she wanted to draw blood from me and see if I had Mono. You see, there is nothing that you can do for Mono and I hate needles a lot. I hate them sooooooo much I can't even begin to convay to you people how much I hate them. So I asked her, calmly, at first, what is the point of you taking my blood? She was like "um . . . well . . . there really isn't other then to just see if you have Mono or not". So obviously I was not going to give up easily. I said to her, "so since you have rulled out Strep and the FLU, wouldn't it be safe just to say that it is either Mono or just the common cold?" She was all like, "Yeah, but it might be good for us to take you blood anyway." I told her "No way in Hell are you going to put a needle that won't tell me anything in my skin lady." She got very mad and said "very well then, you may leave." I think that I was probably the worst patient of the day, but you know what, I don't give a shit. I didn't have to get a needle in my skin. Yay! Other then that I have slept all day and have enjoyed it. I am starting to feel better but there are so many different symptoms that I am experiencing that I don't know when I will be all better. Write me if you want, if not you can come and visit, if not you can be an ass!
