Boredom.

Since i'm sickish, I'm not really up to going anywhere. I ran an errand with Mom this morning, and that took a LOT out of me. So since I'm stuck at home, I'm really bored with nothing to do. I don't want to watch anything on TV or a movie because that's what I've been doing the past few days. I'm sick of looking at the computer screen. I would read, but I've got a head ache and that makes it worse. I've tried to sleep, but I can't even do that at night.
And there's my rant for the day,

UGH!

I'm suppose to be on an airplane right now. But I'm not. Remember how after the play Cindy and the Godfather I was really sick? Well, whatever I had then, is back. Last time I was sick- this is how it went.

Monday- Friday (April 26th-39th) I was really tired all week.
Saturday (May 1st) I got even more exhausted after the performance.
Sunday- Worst pains I have ever felt in my entire life.
Monday- Started to feel better. Went to the Doctor.
Tuesday- I felt completely better and even went out to dinner with Cody.

And I thought that was that. I went to North Carolina, had fun, and came home. The whole next week I started getting ready for the trip to San Diego. Our flight was May 17th at 9:50am.

On Friday, I began to feel really tired. By Saturday, I felt absolutely exhausted. I didn't sleep much. When I 'woke up' on Sunday I felt absolutely horrible again. I went to church though (assuming it was allergies) and then out to lunch. By the time I got home I felt AWFUL. I just laid down on the couch. Cody came over to sit with me and to tell me to get better... Especially because I was leaving the next day at 5am. Cody left around 4:55 because he had to be at work at 5. We said goodbye and that we would see each other when I got back. I went upstairs and began to pack. After a few minutes, I began to feel weak. I sat on the floor so I could put stuff in the suit case and conserve energy. Mom and Dad came upstairs, saw me, and decided to take me to Urgent Care. I felt dizzy, nauseous, I had a fever and a stiff/sore/swollen next, my spine felt swollen and was very stiff, I had a headache that felt as though it turned into a migraine, my nose was running, my eyes were watery... in fact there wasn't a single area on my body that didn't hurt. I had my blood drawn (which I absolutely HATE having done... it makes me feel even more woozy) After being tested for multiple things including strep throat, they sent my blood to the lab to be tested. 2 hours later I was pulling into the drive way. The doctor was going to call with my lab results as soon as she got them. We found out by 10 that I didn't have mono like she first believed. I had some form of a virus.
Because I was so sick, the doctor told my mom that we should reschedule the trip to San Diego... So that is why I'm writing this blog, when I'm suppose to be on an airplane. We're planning to reschedule the trip for some time in July, but I'm pretty bummed.
And now my writing is ending as I have nothing else to say.
Time to rest and relax and hopefully be all better by tomorrow. I feel really crappy though...

Dumb Doctor

The Doctor said, "Drink fluids, you'll be fine, see you!" I was literally there two minutes. Such a waste of time/money. Luckily, I'm feeling better. My throat is still a little bit raw, and my ear aches a little bit, but I'm able to move around and I'm beginning to be able to eat a little bit again. My mom took really good care of me. She got me whatever I needed and stayed by my side :)

Cody was truly wonderful and came over to check on me a few times. He wouldn't leave my side for hours at a time. We sat on the couch (well, he sat, I was laying down) and watched LOST. He would fetch me whatever I needed. He even brought me a dozen pink roses to cheer me up :)

I'm officially done with finals at HCC! I think I got an A in photography, and a B in English. I'm content with both of those grades :) Only 110 days until classes start at Liberty University! I can't believe how quickly that it is approaching.

Since I'm graduation highschool, my parents are buying me a lap top... but not just any laptop... A MAC! I'm getting a macbook pro. I'm really excited. We're not ordering it until we get a free ipod with purchase (every year at the 'back to school' time, they do that as a promotion).

I'm off to get some more rest,

P.s. Niquil is my friend :D

Cinderella is sick!

The performance of Cindy and the Godfather went really well! The dress rehearsals we had on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday really helped. Unfortunately, on Monday I began to get a sore throat. I drank tea with honey (thank you for the honey, Cody) and tried to limit my talking. However, when I was on stage, I pushed myself to be the loudest and to really try to be in character. I felt so bleh every night. The performance started Thursday. I began to feel sicker and sicker, but I refused to let anyone know... Sadly, I woke up Sunday with no voice, and completely sore and unable to move... I shouldn't have pushed myself as hard as I did.
I have a doctor's appointment in a half hour... Guess I should leave. Here's hoping I get better.

Cough cough.

Starting Monday evening, I have dress rehearsal every day for a play I'm in. The play is called "Cindy and the Godfather" (Cinderella and the Godfather). I'm privileged to be playing Cinderella. I'm super excited!
Unfortunately, yesterday I began to come down with a cold. My voice is pretty much gone, and I'm really achy. I had a fever, but that seems to be gone. Cody, my boyfriend, came over last night to sit with me and watch TV since I wasn't feeling well. He then went into work from 12am-6am without taking a nap before going in. When he got off of work at 6, he dropped off honey (for my tea) and raspberry peaches (one of my favorite foods) for me to eat. He's so sweet :)
On top of dress rehearsal every day next week, I also have a research paper due on Tuesday. Luckily it's due at the beginning of the week because I won't have to worry about getting it done.
I should probably go work on my paper for awhile.
Cheers,
Becca
