plugged up & plugged in...
mental note: bring earplugs when working at a cafe.I went to the doc's this afternoon, and the diagnosis: Snotitus. hahaa.. no.. she said one of my ears looks like it's planning an Infection Party (so she prescribed some antibiotics), and that she could clearly see all the pressure goin on in my face. And today STILL, my upper teeth are aching - which I cannot express enough how frickin painful it is! I am doing the 'I'll do whatever it takes from here on out for the rest of my life to avoid this pain again!' pleading to the SnotGods above. And lastly, my lymph nodes are chock full and working hard, and consiquently very tender (because they apparently take on the brunt of the drain). Oh ya... being sick is HOTT!
I asked her if there are lymph nodes taking on stress in my upper back :) and when she asked if I was stressed tears came to my eyes. Jesus, Willo - pull it together! So anyway - she said that I may have used the Sinex stuff too much - which she can see how easily that could happen. Or she said it could just be that due to all the circumstances involved, that I had some sensitivity to it. Another thing is that I feel like because of our lush gardens out back and all the rains, that I'm exposed to more mold than usual in this new place - and that could be why I find myself so sick every January, as I could have some kind of allergy to that. Who knows. Anyway - I'm on the road to recovery - it simply can't get worse than this.
This is officially the worst sinus thing I think I've ever had and I feel for all of you who have written in commenting about your allergies, and religious steam/flushing methods. I am *so* doing that as soon as I get home. But for now, I'm sitting at Canvas Cafe, and then after this I head out to the Sunset for BAM.
I'm cranky though.. I was formulating complaint notes about the girl who rang me up for my drink here. You know when you feel like yelling, "HEY! Aren't customer's #1 here!?!?". hahaaa. and then I thought, "Wow, I'm cranky."
