OMG Chesh is here, y'all! She went to get ready coz we is drivin' to Iowa City today to meet and stay with
newgeneration and
chuckjd AND THEIR PRECIOUS KITTY CLAUDIA. Tomorrow, we depart for Minneapolis for the FIRST MANICS SHOW AODFLKJADLJKHGWFOEIAJLJFWEOI;AHF;ISDKLBJASDFKLJASDFLKJEAOWIFNABIOUF OH MY GOD WE'RE GOING TO SEE THE FUCKING MANIC STREET PREACHERS WHAT.
WHAT.
Yesterday I stayed up awhile and did fiddly things like run errands and get a flu shot! My mom came home from work, where she gets them gratis because nobody wants no sick nurses, and she's all I GOT MY FLU SHOT! FLU SHOT IT HURTS IN MY ARM :( and left out the medical credit card so I could go get one at Walgreens, lest I catch Four Diseases again like I did in May. So I did, and then when I was at Target, I started feeling all dizzy/sick/shitty and that feeling did not really disappear all day--it was worst right before I went to bed last night, and I felt really restless and didn't get to sleep until after 5 AM.
I actually still feel kind of shitty! I did not realize I'd react badly to the flu shot. I'll keep mainlining vitamins and thinking positive. I've been doing sinus rinses to prevent illness, but I can't help this particular shittiness, I guess.
So yeah. I need to finish getting ready and eat so we can GO. Janelle, if you see this, we'll probably arrive around 5:30-6 PM, depending. I'll give you a call when we're actually in Iowa and then when we're about to get there. Or Chesh will! I'll be driving so that would probably be wiser.
Hey, on an off-note, does anyone hear
"You Gotta Be" by Des'ree on the radio a whole lot? I always hear it. I like it, but it's the only song I know by her. Apparently, she's British, and she did more things during the 1990s. Her lyrics are pretty trite, but it has that bangy '90s piano I love and it's fun to sing to. It's been stuck in my head and I keep realizing how dumb all the words are. TRY TO KEEP YOUR HEAD UP TO THE SKYYY-YYYY. So... yeah. One-hit wonders!
