LOL, I check Molly’s blog every now and then just to get a good laugh. Kim’s still trying to buddy up to her, sometimes as herself, but usually as some celebrity. Today she’s Snooki.

I feel like such an idiot when I think of how many times she suckered me into thinking she was really someone else on Ask, though I had no way of knowing at the time just how fucked in the head she was. I’m almost positive that my “pretty lady” fan and the “friend of a friend who had heard about me” was her.

For now, she and Molly can have fun wondering what the hell I’m writing about cuz I’m not about to be kind enough to share. At least not until they somehow manage to find my Tumblr blog.

I thought I would wake up wonderfully refreshed after sleeping 9-10 hours, but instead all that’s improved is my cough. I still feel rundown and my appetite hasn’t fully returned yet either. I almost ate a whole meal today, though, something that was beginning to seem more foreign by the minute as all I could do was nibble.

Another strange thing is how warm I’ve been feeling. I usually get cold very easily, especially my feet, but I’m sitting here barefoot and in shorts and a sports bra. The windows are open and the fans are blaring. It is warming up, though, and is now 79° in this room. But when I got up when it was 9° cooler it didn’t seem chilly at all. It still gets cold as hell at night, though, down in the upper 30s. This time of year the weather is totally bipolar; warm days, cold nights. I doubt we’ll freeze anymore this year, though.

My German hottie’s been sick too, but she checked in to wish me gute besserung mit meinen Augen.

Aw, wie suß. :)

Oh, those long ugly words of hers. Poor girl has Nebenhöhlenentzündung (sinusitis).

Adonis said he looked through my archive on MO since that blog is still available to friends only, and wondered if I’d made some private entries during those days, but as I told him, I was simply too sick to write.

Yesterday’s eye exam was a bit rough on me cuz I was still so out of it. It was nice to get out and get some fresh air, but I couldn’t wait to get back and climb back into bed! I had slept pretty shitty the night before, waking for a few hours in the middle of my sleep.

The doctor and his staff were very friendly and helpful. The doctor spoke loud and clear enough for me to hear him and took the time to explain things to me. All looks good with one small catch and that’s elevated eye pressure. I’m hoping it’s just the flu that’s causing a false reading, but he wants me back in a couple of weeks to check it again. It’s not like I’m going to go blind, but if left unmonitored, there is a 20% risk of glaucoma. Worst-case scenario I have to use eye drops for a while.

In a couple of weeks I will finally have bifocals for when I’m out and about, and new reading glasses as well.

Tom’s exam went well and all he needs is one single-vision pair of glasses for driving, the lucky bastard. And he’s older than me, too.

Again, it’s so great to be insured! Between the two of us, this would have cost over $500, but it cost just a little over $100 instead.
