and the things we do today will be tomorrow's news;

[rocknload]

Bad News! I can't figure out how to use the medicine that's supposed to help me breathe.

Worse News! I'm becoming pretty good at telling the different kinds of headaches I get. I think this one is the oxygen deprivation headache.

Good News! If this keeps up, I'll start to get dizzy, I'll start to get tired, and I'll probably be asleep in the next half hour.

It's not like I've got bad asthma, I just wheeze a little bit and get weaker and weaker until I eventually do something about it. Thing is, I've been choking all day, so now I've got to break out the nebulizer, which makes me feel even more pathetic than sucking on an inhaler does. Maybe I should pretend I'm smoking hookah or something. Here's to hoping the side affects aren't worse than the freakin' symptoms, but hell, my hands are shaking either way.

I swear, I've gotta cheer the fuck up. I'm starting to bug me with my bitching. Hey, I've got honest good news! I found my iPod. Tell me that doesn't kick ass.

Better News! This is like the first time ever that halfling_rogue hasn't yelled at me for staying up so late! Awesome.

If you fall asleep from lack of oxygen, won't you SUFFOCATE IN YOUR SLEEP?

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

It's not a lack of oxygen, exactly, it's more like I'm getting, say, ninety percent of the oxygen I'm used to? Which doesn't really affect me much at first, it just starts adding up after a while...

It's more annoying than anything else.

Are you allergic to something? Why can't you breathe?

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

Well, I have asthma, but a mild case of it, I think, since it barely ever bothers me beyond having to take a shot of an inhaler every once in a while. The theory is it was all the cleaning I did yesterday, stirring up dust and stuff. I hope, anyway...

I hope so. Go smoke your theraputic hookah thing.

BREATHE, DAMN IT.

AND OXYGEN IS SLIGHTLY MORE ESSENTIAL THAN SLEEP.

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

TRYING.

IT'S HARDER THAN YOU'D THINK.

I HOPE YOU WENT TO BED NOT LONG AFTER I WENT TO SLEEP IN THE BACK OF THE CAR. And that you're breathing better now.

NOPE. I STARTED TO BITCH AT YOU ABOUT HAVING TO BREAK OUT THE NEBULIZER, BUT THEN YOU LEFT, SO I WENT UPSTAIRS AND USED MY LJ TO VENT. THEN IT TOOK ME FOREVER TO WORK THE THING. THEN MY NERVES WERE FUCKING SHOT FROM THE MEDICATION SO I COULDN'T SLEEP FOR ANOTHER... IT WAS A WHILE.

But I'm mostly better now? I slept in until three! ^^

AGH

I GOT ENOUGH SLEEP

HOW DID YOUR TRIP GO

[unicorn]

IT WAS VERY LONG. AFTER WE GOT BACK, WE DID MORE THINGS. I HAVE TO GET UP EARLY AGAIN TOMORROW. THIS VACATION IS AMAZINGLY UNRELAXING.

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

GOD, YOU'RE ALL BUSY AND STUFF, MAN.

[unicorn]

I AM LIKE HALF AS BUSY AT SCHOOL. THAT IS NOT HOW IT SHOULD GO.

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

WHAT COOL STUFF DID YOU DO AFTER THE DOCTORS?

[unicorn]

I... slept for an hour! Then we went to dinner! Then we went shopping, then we went to the library, then we went to the barn, then we had to watch a movie with my brother's friend Matt because he only comes over once in a while and he's a family friend, then we went to hang out with my grandparents... I JUST NOW GOT TO THE COMPUTER SINCE I LAST COMMENTED

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

IT SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD DAY.

I FIGURED AS MUCH.

[unicorn]

IT TOOK A VERY LONG TIME TO HAVE A GOOD DAY. USUALLY THEY ARE MUCH SHORTER.

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

NONSENSE. THE BEST DAYS ARE THE DAY WHERE MANY COOL THINGS HAPPEN.

ALSO, DOCTOR'S WENT OKAY?

[unicorn]

IT WENT FINE. WE WALKED IN, HE SAID OKAY! YOU SEEM TO BE DOING WELL, WE WILL SEE YOU IN JUNE! WE WALKED OUT.

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

WOW, I BET YOU FELT GLAD YOU WENT THROUGH ALL THAT TROUBLE TO GET THERE.

[unicorn]

IT WAS VERY SATISFYING, YES.

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

I GUESS IT COULD'VE GONE WORSE...

[unicorn]

VERY LIKELY.
