brenda gave me the kick in the ass i needed to get this thing updated. i'm doing much better, right now i just have this horrible rash all over my back, chest, neck, face, and hands from some of the medication i was taking but i've stopped. it seems to always work out that the medication that cost an arm and a leg is the one that you stop taking first and have a shiton extra of. i'm actually pissed about it b/c that medication was NOT cheap. my mom is bring home some benadryl and none too soon b/c i'm itching my hands like nuts.

after my mom gets back from denver i have to have my tonsils taken out b/c they've swollen so much they'll never go back to normal. i guess for the first couple days i was in the hospital i was in critical condition but no one would really tell my mom what was going on. finally one of the many nurses i had told my mom just how serious this whole thing was. if my oxygen level, blood pressure and something else dropped too far this infection would have spread to my whole body and i would have needed one of those things that makes you breathe (the name is not coming to mind). that's a little scary thinking about that but luckily that didn't happen.

mostly my days are boring and i'm going a little senile. i stay at home 24/7 and i was at a hospital for 5 days so i'm kinda itching to get out of the house for a bit. it's annoying being tired all the time and not being able to do a lot of things or move around a lot but hopefully this will pass soon.

maria is at basic training right now and i miss her so much. the next time i'll be able to see her is in august but i don't know if i'll be around here then b/c i may be in basic. hopefully things will work out though and if anything we can fly to see each other so not all hope is lost.

luke is home and he has drugs to share with me.
