Time for a real update I daresay. Not too much has been going on worth mentioning. Last week was long, boring and lonely for the most part. Helmut left to work at a summer camp over in Wisconsin and thus will only be back once every other weekend or so for a day and a half or some such stuff. At the same time this was happening, Tanja picked up some extra shifts so she was basically out the door when I was waking up then had carpal tunnel surgery and stayed with the rents for a few days to heal. Everyone left me at once damn it :-P And at the same that all of that was happening, I started getting ill. I picked up in the middle of the week when I was freezing my ass off with a hoodie and long pants while our thermostat said 80+ degrees fahrenheit (27 for you people on Centigrade). By Friday I was feeling pretty lousy and in a bad mood so I went to bed early. Helmut came and surprised/scared the shit out of me. He told me there was a slim chance of getting a ride back for the weekend but he's probably just stay at camp and call me. So I was sleeping and then suddenly there was someone in my bed giving me a kiss and saying it was time to wake up. Jerk LOL I usually expect him to come wake me when he's around but sometimes its just weird to be sleeping and suddenly have a tall dark shape looming over you. So we visited for a while and there was much happiness.
Saturday, Ben was super AWESOME and took us to go visit Tanja and I finally got to meet the Shannon type personage I'd heard so much about. That was a fun day. Then Helmut and I got a ride back to Winona from Tanja's friend Amy and we got dinner and watched a movie. Well, he watched the movie, I slept through most of it and started getting chills again. Then Helmut touched me and said I was burning up so I was told to go take a nap and he would be back soon. So he ran off and came back with a lot of herbs and such to make a tea that reduced fevers cause Ive been warm for a couple days. The stuff tasted pretty bitter but it did the trick for the time being. I hate being sick because I get all emotional and got depressed when it was time for him to leave, even though he's mostly likely coming back again this weekend. Stupid sickness making me weak I KILL YOU *ahem* anyways, so yeah, I spent the rest of the weekend sleeping and feverish. I started feeling a little better on Monday when Tanja came home and on Tuesday I finally made a doctor's appointment once I figured out our new insurance plan (which is quite retarded I must say). So I went in and the doctor didn't seem to be quite up to par, he was one of those that tries to get you in and out within 5 minutes so I didn't have a chance to ask some other stuff I'd been wanting to get checked out. Ah well, c'est la vie. The doc decided that I had either bronchitus or pneumonia but he wasn't sure which, so I was given this wonder drug that cures both at once and so far its doing a good job. Getting the prescription was a long and tedious process but it got the job done and after 2 doses Im already doing better.
Not much else to report, I'm still jobless and not getting any callbacks. Sitting around all day talking on my phone or online is starting to make me feel lazy. I think I'm gonna start working out again once I shake this cough. I've lost a bunch of weight from being active and not eating too much so now I shall go lose the rest of the pounds I want to and start tighening any loose skin WOO! And now, off to play with the kittens or something...Tschüss!
