So I'm not so sick anymore. I went back to Olin on Friday and finally got antibiotics prescribed. The doctor was very pleasant, he obviously knew his stuff about the sinuses and quizzed me on them too. He tested by just lightly tapping on the bones around the eyes, which was nice since the last doctor just dug his fingers into my face and asked whether it hurt. And he'd read my chart and he knew my age and made small talk about my family, etc. He was awesome.
My parents sent me a box full of microwaveable comfort foods and chocolate and medication as soon as they knew I was sick. It arrived pretty much after the fact but it was really sweet of them. And my grandmother was sending me a letter and she opened it back up and slipped in some money when she heard I was sick. They all do as much as they can for me from so far away and it's so nice, I cried when they told me what they were sending.
I can't sleep tonight. I'm alone in my room because Jim went to the Pistons game with his sister and Natasha's gone home for the weekend, and so it's dead quiet in here except for the noise of the refrigerator and the trains are sounding so loud when they come through, and I really need someone here who I can mumble little things with before settling down for the night and who will be breathing steadily when I wake up confused from a bad dream and who will make the room just not so lonely.
