so I have a respiratory infection, which landed me in the ER today for five fricking hours, two of which were spent in the waiting room, one of which was spent on one asthma treatment while watching Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. why'd they have to put me in the pediatric area? :( also, the doctor who saw me -- I swear to God -- was Newman from Seinfeld. possibly the weirdest thing ever.
I feel better now, since that painful cough is gone, mainly thanks to that treatment. they're putting me on two kinds of meds for the next three days or so and I got today and tomorrow off of work, which means if I'm feeling up to it tomorrow night I'll be able to go to poetry. speaking of which, I really should try and force myself into writing a little bit. I've done bits and pieces recently, but nothing I've actually held on to.
so I didn't eat all day until after I got home (around 5), when Dustin came over and we went to McDonald's. I ate like a goddamn horse, because once you can breathe again it's pretty easy to notice that you haven't been providing yourself with the proper amount of calories/nutrition. not that I couldn't live without the calories...
I feel like I should make a new year's resolution and reflect upon the past year. maybe I'll do that, who knows. I've got to go work on my Grendel essay though, so I guess this is my working resolution: to get my college things in on time, and MOUNT HOLYOKE OR BUST!
contemplation,
new year's
