So today marks a whole fucking week that I've been sick. I've had strep before, no biggie. I've even given it as a gift once or twice, but never have I been this fucking sick in my life. Do I still have a job? I don't know. Can't go to work. Can't take a shower. Can't even go to the doctor. And why is this? Because I have no fucking insurance. Yet, last Tuesday I wanted to die so, money didn't seem like an issue. So, I dragged my ass to the urgent care clinic. That is until I got the 200+ dollar bill yesterday. Not only that, but the 70+ dollar antibiotics didn't help and the ones that I purloined from my father give me serious pains in my stomach. And on top of all this, I have an abscess on my tonsil from the infection. Yeah, I know boo-fucking-hoo. But fuck, the thought of having to look for another job...and probably go to summer school on top of it all...well, sucks. The only semi-good thing that has come out of all this is that I've lost 10 pounds, but truthfully, I'd gain 20 just to feel better. Now I am done sobbing about my woes. I'm going back to bed.
