I feel no update for 5 weeks warrants an explanation... So, when we last left the story I mentioned I was quitting, which was all well and true. I did so, recovered from a bad cough and went on the job hunt. Managed to land a good job at Staples too. Went in for my second day of training and all was going well and perfectly normally.
Then came the pain.
Yes, I mean horrible chest-crushing, can't-breathe, call-the-ambulance pain. Which in fact is what I did. Got a nice ride to the hospital and it turns out I managed to collapse my left lung. Not only that, I had puss surrounding it and a 3cm abcess in the middle of it from a massive infection started by pneumonia.
But, two weeks later, one operation, two chest tubes, and 10 kilos of weight loss later I'm back home and on the mend. Got a huge operation scar now too. Maybe I can use it to impress someone... Maybe. =P
So, that's why no update in so long. Hard to update in the hospital. ^_^;
