A day of recovery. Oh and Windows 7 came out. I spent most of the day trying to get all my files in line. I made quite a mess all over 3 hard drives. It's also a shame that I have such a hard time deleting anything.
Went out to Jason's Deli for some soup and sandwich.
Trying to figure out health care benefits stuff too. Bleh.

Chigga chigga what.
Woke up today in a puddle of my own sweat. Super sexy. I took some nighttime Zicam Cold and Flu stuff, and was completely knocked out until it wore off. Oh and surprise the fever is back and stronger than ever.
Time to set up an appointment with a doctor. Let's see how easy this goes. Would universal healthcare make this process any easier? Well, I felt like I had to give my information out over the phone about 3 times before they even considered setting up an appointment; that's kind of annoying. To set up an appointment all I said was "the earliest time you have available today" which happened to be 5 hours later.
I slept a good chunk of the time up until the appointment. Turns out my fever decided to fade away. Down to 96, wtf. Did a swab thing at the doctor's, definitely the flu, most likely of the swine variety (no way of knowing these days, but 90% of the cases are).
If that's all the swine flu has to offer, then I would say it's much weaker than the regular flu. I've had the regular flu over christmas one year, and I really wanted to die. This was mostly just making me tired.
My body is flip flopping on feeling sick. Time for sleep and lazy-ing around.

Well, not going to work today. Fever running a muck and I feel achy all over.
For lunch I cooked up some corn, pasta, and tempties. They're messier than I originally thought, but oh so delicious.
I never imagined being 'stuck' at home to be so boring. TV gets old pretty fast.
I slept on and off most of the day. Today was pretty un-epic for me.

Feel like a new kind of death today. I think I have some type of upper respiratory irritation or some cold or cough thing. Breathing feels irritated like I need to cough, but I'm suppressing that so I don't irritate it more and take longer to heal.
I think coughing that much is sorta unnatural anyways. Most animals might cough once or twice, but not 30 times an hour. Sneezing, now that is natural and something you can't always suppress.
And.. the work week begins.
After work I watched some TV while cooking some Mac+Cheese. Hasbro also gave me his leftover chicken to pick at, FREE PROTEIN. Also watched some MNF while doing laundry, taking it easy finally.

Waking up sucks. Especially after a night like last. I sat around in bed and watched tv until I stopped feeling like death.
Picked up the house a bit, then started the trek home to H-town.
Got back to Austin without incident, then began cleaning the house some. I think my room is better than before, sweet.
What a weekend.

Woke up only having slept a handful of hours. Jaime and Scott met up with Ray Matt and I to head over to Enchanted Rock. Just a couple hours each way.
Enchanted Rock was amazing. We explored, adventured, relaxed, and just had a great experience. We definitely need to come back here in the future.
After that, we went to a BBQ place I found in Llano, Cooper's Pit Bar-B-Que. Everything was fantastic, and it wasnt that expensive. The beans were free too.
Once we got home, a night of wonders and amazement began. Then in a blink of an eye, it was over. Major buzz-kill too.

Slept in as much as I could today.
Cleaned up the house a bit, then tried to assist the time warner cable guy with the appointment we had set up. WHY OH WHY does TWC seem to always mess things up. The request was to get HD cable boxes (didnt bring them) and to check the signal and plug in a few wires (which took about an hour instead of 15 mintues).
Bleh.
Drove to houston and picked up Chris and Matt. A girl I haven't seen in many years was over at Matt's place, so I said hi. Then we left.
Got back to Austin and started preparing for the club. Taking Ray out to his very first (and most everybody's first) gentlemen's club.
All I can really say is that I'm still not mentally to that level where I can enjoy that atmosphere the most, and it was just alright. Ray had a blast.
