Health status: Still sick.
Mental status: Very annoyed.
The good news: At least I don't have to go back to classes until Monday.
The bad news: The weather is freaking nice and I want to go outdoor places and see Star Trek, but I just feel too miserable to taint anything I would otherwise regard as super fun with the misery of congestion and nausea.
It all started last Wednesday. I had a very very very sore throat, so I called my doctor and spoke with his nurse on Thursday. They gave me amoxicilian or whatever. Awesome. I take it three times a day, and the anti-biotic gives me a completely different type of infection. So, I had to hault taking the amox and now I'm going to switch to something else to deal with that. On top of that infection, I've spiralled back downward since yesterday (Wednesday seems to be my doomsday) and now it seems that I have something completely different than before. So I'm dealing with 2 different types of infections at the same time, like some sort of crazy dual-wielding ranger class of illness. I can't even take any centrum because when I do, I get a sudden, violent, "I'm-going-to-throw-up-right-now" shortly after taking it. It's very uncomfortable, yet I'm thinking about taking it anyway since my immune system seems to have been paid off by mobsters to take a dive in the final round.

April 30: I went to the Flight of the Conchords performance Thursday night, which was hilariously awesome. I don't know if I like their new songs more than their old songs, but they put on a good show. Also, the guy who plays the landlord on their show opened for them as a comedian, and he was truly funny. He gave out postcards about Delta airlines hatred, which I intend to scan and share. B & J seemed to do a lot of particulars on the fly, and their format was typically song-talking-song-talking-song-talking. Part of me wanted to stay behind and watch them exit the Fox and walk to their tour bus, but a larger part of me was whining about going to bed and waking up for work the next morning. Consequently, I also passed on the midnight showing of Wolverine. Ah well.
May 1: Mitch and I went to The Melting Pot on the Delmar Loop for our 6 Month Anniversary. It was teh fancy. We had a four course fondu meal with unlimited dipping objects (other than entree) for like $102. It seems like a lot for a 2-person meal perhaps, but this place is nice and there was not one food item that I didn't like. Then again, I like cheese, chocolate, and meat. Five-star rating from The Jenny. This place will duly be added to my "go to when I want someplace nice like out of a movie or something."
