Current Mood: Sad & Sickly

Thankfully, my pain killers have kicked in so I am able to type a bit but I’m still not really capable of getting a decent post out. This will have to do.

I was supposed to go back to Sick Kids emergency today but a boy died of H1N1 there recently (my parents told me about it and I didn’t ask when exactly). When they told me that my thoughts immediately turned to a friend who is sick and a day ago said that if her fever didn’t go down she would have to go to the hospital. I texted her to make sure she was OK and it turns out she knows the family of the boy who died. I’m very sorry for his family.

I’m not going to the hospital today or anytime soon for that matter, don’t need to be sick on top of all of this. I have almost no immune system as it is and it doesn’t help that I’m taking prednisone for the nasty joint inflamation that I’ve been dealing with for the past 3 and a half weeks. It hasn’t been much help but I don’t know if I can assess that properly until I’m off of it. I hate the way it makes me feel. Our dog takes it for his arthritis and now I understand why he gets so thirsty and crazy. The side effects are really poopy. I’m so glad that I only have to take it for a week! I didn’t realize it caused acne until just now, when I looked up the side effects. That sure does explain a lot. I feel like the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man, I’m so bloated. Its really bad.

I tried… I tried so hard yesterday to work on a new theme for my blog and I got absolutely no where. I can’t do anything right now and its driving me insane. There’s only so much TV one can watch before going batty. I can barely hold open books (I just want to read!), I can barely play on my PSP/DS. When I do it’s for a very limited time and only after my pain killers have kicked in. Yesterday, I forced myself to draw, and just grit my teeth through it and am paying for that today. I’m so bored! Even if I can do something physically, chances are that, because of the pain killers, I won’t be able to focus on it anyways. Also, right before all this started I was restringing Analiese and I can’t put her back together now! I just don’t have enough arm strength. I feel sorry for her, or maybe it’s just her disembodied face plate staring up at me that’s making me feel guilty.
