I would ask what else but I really don't want to know

The sore throat has progressed to a nasty productive cough (so sexy). And in a probably unrelated but terribly exciting development, I've broken out in hives under both arms. I couldn't sleep last night. Same thing happened as when I tried to nap yesterday afternoon. I just lay there, wide awake but exhausted. As you might imagine, I am dead tired today. I would laugh about the ridiculousness of it all, but that could set off another coughing jag.



After my lymph drainage appointment, I'm headed straight to my PCP to make sure the cough isn't bronchitis or something that can be treated with an antibiotic.

Twenty-six hours to opening cannon.

What in the actual fuck, you guys. Seriously. What in the actual fuck.

Wow. Any chance you're prone (or newly prone) to the hive thing due to stress? As in, all these wonky, unexplained things your body is doing right before faire could be causing you to stress so hard that hives result?

Regardless, WTF, Lydia's body? STOP THAT.

SECONDING YOUR LAST STATEMENT!

My body has always had a fondness for hives, but I rarely get them from stress. I think maybe the hives are from all the ginger and not much food? I was drinking that stuff non-stop yesterday. Maybe I overdid it.

Sorry to hear your feeling so awful. Best wishes on recovering and making it to opening canon.

TOTALLY SHAWARMA AFTER!

Or, actually, probably a turkey leg.

I am sorry you are still feeling poorly. I can offer some no sleep solidarity, for what it's worth :(

Oh hey! Good times!

Not that you aren't TRYING to take care of yourself, but take care of yourself! Go lay around all day watching movies/videos after your doc appointments.

I think I'm going to lie around and read porn.

Well, it will raise your temperature, thus killing the bug....
Just make sure you don't indulge in too much heavy breathing! ;D

I'm working from home today, with some Martha Stewart on TV, which is sort of "porn lite" for Cancerians. Maybe. Okay, no, not really. But it made me giggle.

DID NOT NEED THAT IMAGE.

I'd say it's the ginger.. it is a stimulant, after all.
This sucks dirty hookah water, I'm so sorry.

If there's anything I can bring by or help with, let me know.

I agree with you on the ginger. Today it's just honey and lemon juice.

If I think of anything you can bring me, I'll let you know, thanks!

I hate HATE that you are unwell. :(

I have an idea: RESET. Start over all healthy tomorrow.

:( Just so you know, I am thinking of you today and hoping that you wake up feeling decent and make it through your day without the plague monkeys biting your face off.

Thank you. Plague monkeys are nasty things.

Aack. How did I miss that you had hives and a cough? Oh, I know--got depressed and quit reading stuff online. Well, not that it matters since I can't fix it. But for what it's worth, those are two of my most unfavorite things so I know what you're going through and I'm SO pissed off on your behalf. Yeah, seriously--what the ever-living blue-eyed fuck!! Mmm . . . that made me think of Thor. And Loki. Not every cloud has a silver lining, but sometimes they do have a little silver spangle somewhere.

I don't ship them, but this fanvid is hot:
