azythromycin, my lord and savior

Jan 24, 2008 09:03

So three days ago I felt like a train wreck. The day before yesterday, I felt like a multi-car pileup. Yesterday, I felt like a nasty highway accident. Today, I feel like a jarring collision with consequences to somebody's insurance premiums. Tomorrow: a fender bender? By Saturday, dare I hope, a dinged side mirror? And by Sunday, if I'm ( Read more... )

Auch, get well soon, Dylan! I'd use a cat as a pillow too, provided that I can't crush her with my head.

Poor Luther, having it given to him by anonymous fat man hands.

Roslyn just kind of wheezes a bit and then deals with it. I would say it's due to her having extra floob to cushion herself with, but I think she honestly enjoys it. She's a very special cat.

Don't feel too bad for Luther. He knew what he was in for, and he set himself up for it.

Make sure to serve extra kitty treats when you're coherent enough to do so.

Oh, they got switched to wet food in the evenings, so they're pretty thrilled with the situation. Plus: mom has been home all week! LAP SITTING, 24/7!

Wonderful! Being used as a pillow is probably more comfortable when you don't have an empty stomach.

azythromycin is the antibiotic to which I am violently allergic, in the 24 hours of non-stop puking way, which I understand is not a true "allergy," but "sensitive" just doesn't seem to cover it. Oh! Such a betrayal. I preferred my illness so very much more than its cure. I am glad that it is treating you better. Be careful with using it more than 10 days.
And:
Shiggins is never happier than when being used as a pillow. Imagine Home with a pizza, a beer, a yoohoo, a doughnut, and a fried chicken all at the same time. Then other times that cat succeeds in pushing both me and my large-sized boyfriend OUT OF BED. WHAT. HE IS NOT LARGE.
I am glad that you are starting to feel better!

You wouldn't have really wanted to have any midnight trysts in the garden this week anyway, on account of the fricking COLD. My poor fuschias.

So, really, you picked the right week to be horribly horribly sick.

quirkybird January 25 2008, 07:36:07 UTC

Seriously, I haven't really left the house except for once on Tuesday, and I opened the front door this afternoon and went "DAMN!"

alephnul January 25 2008, 07:41:17 UTC

Yup, and after such a mild winter. I've been keeping my fuschias tucked in under a bale of straw, warm blankets and hot water bottles, and I'm still afraid they may not make it.

I hadn't really realized I'd turned into a fuschia nut until this last weekend.

Hey, if you're getting better from the antibiotics, I guess that means you don't have mono, so double yay!

quirkybird January 25 2008, 08:06:31 UTC

Poor fuchsias! This is why I've never tried for anything more complicated than a tulip, where ya just drop it in, give it some food, kick the dirt over and hope you see something in the springtime. But I suppose we all need something to irrationally dote on. I regularly talk to the tea kettle. (it just seems so UPSET when it whistles.)

No mono for me! I will not be breathing disease on the masses come Sunday, although I might still advise against getting a flashlight and looking at my tonsils real close.

Not that anybody was ever too excited by that prospect to begin with, but you know. General principles &c.
