I feel like I'm getting sick, which is totally awesome. And by "totally awesome" I mean, exactly the opposite of that. It's fitting because tomorrow is what I am referring to as "MONO-VERSARY!" Since one year ago tomorrow, I began a week of having the worst sore throat ever, which I would later learn was ~mononucleosis. Which sucked, let me tell you. I mean, the guy I am certain I got it from had to spend time in the hospital because his spleen ruptured or something like that, so I guess I got off easy. It still sucked that I had a horrendously disgusting sore throat, was given antibiotics for no reason, was randomly exhausted all the time, and then had a weird rash-like thing on the day I was leaving to go to Boston (it didn't stop me from going and having a great time though. MONO AIN'T GONNA KEEP ME DOWN!). Oh and then having to get blood taken for the mono test, during which time the nurse couldn't find the vein until roughly the 27th time. Granted 3 weeks later I felt pretty much fine, but whatever, mono is lame.

Side note: I was reading last year's entries about being sick, including one that I wrote after the election entitled, "IOWA: The New York of the Midwest!" It's making me laugh, because I vaguely remember talking about that (most likely with takemeback , because who else did I ever talk to last year, really), but mostly because I can't really remember what the point of that statement was.

The real point of this entry was to discuss how I think I'm getting sick. Hopefully, if it's anything at all, it's just a cold or something. I literally can't afford to be sick. Due to no money and no insurance. Also, last night I thought I was getting pink eye, and I almost lost my mind. I feel like I JUST HAD PINK EYE. Except that was 8 months ago, but still.

OH: I MIGHT BE GOING BACK TO NEW ORLEANS AT THE END OF JANUARY. Or something. A friend of mine and I were talking about maybe going down for a few days and visiting my friend Katie who lives there. I am waiting to hear back from the friend who wants to go to see if she approves the dates I suggested. Otherwise I will just go by myself, because I truly need to go back there ASAP. BEST CITY NOT NAMED NEW YORK IN THE WORLD!!!!

This entry was stupid, and I'm sorry.
