We don't think it's Spanish Influenza

[ciircee]

So, I am--and have been--really ill lately. As in 'antipyretics take the edge off the fever, every muscle aches because I'm shivering all the time, I can't breath on TWO levels--head AND chest--and just the thought of swallowing makes my throat hurt and that was before all the coughing started' really ill.

Today, I gave in and went to the doctor's office.

Dr. P: Wow, you are just miserable aren't you!

Me: *nodnod* Is it swine-flu? (since there is a confirmed case about seven miles away from where I live the county board of health sent a flyer around asking us to inquire about this if we start showing flu-like symptoms)

Dr. P: We can do a blood test, but I'd say probably not. You're not showing the benchmarks we're concerned with.

Me: Way to ruin my fun.

Dr. P: Way to ruin MY fun.

Dr.P: *examines*

Dr.P: *listens to chest* *keeps listening* *keeps listening as I cough for five minutes straight*

Dr.P: ...by your SYMPTOMS you started out with flu but I'm going to send you over to X-Ray and we're going to see how bad this pneumonia is right now. I'm pretty sure it's in both lungs.

Me: *rather chirpily* So it's Spanish Influenza.

Dr.P: Wouldn't that be cool?

Me: Actually, yes. Yes it would.

X-ray Technician: You know, Dr.P put a 'Patient X' post-it over your name.

Me: We're hoping it's Spanish Influenza.


It is not, sadly, Spanish flu. This is not the first time I've developed something simple into double pneumonia. I've had two shots to the hip today. Antibiotics, antipyretic, and a quick ringer of fluid pumped in.



I am feeling slightly more coherent but possibly more miserable. I am now going to poke around the internet.

PS. Huh. je_fqfest informs me that there are only six-point-five weeks left. a;sdkjf;lsdj DDDD: PORN. MUST. MAKE. PORN.

Irrrrrrr, how unfortunate, two shots to the hip? *shudders* D: I hope you'll get better soon!

Would Ohno drawing on his bandmates' faces make you feel better?

[beckerbell.livejournal.com]

What? You went through all of that and it's not Spanish flu? Unfair. :<

*hugs* I'm sorry you've felt like crap lately, FEEL BETTER SOON OKAY. The only thing being sick is good for is a) whining for sympathy and b) getting something really cool to be sick with. :|

YES. YES IT WOULD. I see nipple t-shirts? What can nipple t-shirts NOT cure?

*clings* ILU.

Also: I am working on that AU. I water-marked the document so that it shows sleepy!Sho with child when I type. It is very inspirational.

That's just rubbish that it's not Spanish Flu! x

[blood-opal.livejournal.com]

Hehehe. I love when Ohno gets all up in his bandmates' faces. Especially when Nino was complaining that Ohno's breath smells like cookies and Sho says "it's like art" (while Yama-chan in the background comments that it's like body-painting dhadjahda YOU GUYS TOTALLY NEED TO DO BODY-PAINTING FOR REALS OKAY). XDDD

Oh god, sleepy!Sho with child adhsjadhajda SOMEONE TOTALLY MADE A WALLPAPER OF THAT AND I AM SO TEMPTED TO PUT IT ON MY DESKTOP.

It's totally unfair. I cried. WEPT BITTERLY.

I did get to finally watch Jun's incest-twin movie though, since laying around is my current defaul setting. I had to yell at him for being so damn pretty during parts of it.

Now I just need to watch more sentai and Kamen Rider stuff.

PS. Jan. It's like Retsu is ASKING for it.

[still-ciircee.livejournal.com]

I got one on each side! That way, if I had a reaction to one they'd know which shot it was. It's to the point that I'm just laughing about it now because I'm already so miserable that it's funny.

[still-ciircee.livejournal.com]

It totally is. >.< I should have made them check for spattergoit.

[happenstanc3.livejournal.com]

Double pneumonia? Stop being so boring. :x

[beckerbell.livejournal.com]

I wanted to be all sympathetic and stuff, but then JUN'S INCEST MOVIE and JAN AND RETSU!

Seriously, I love Retsu with a sort of ridiculous passion and it is his own fault for trying to have dignity, okay, that's just NOT ON when it comes to sentai. (Also, he is played by Takagi Manpei, one of the twins from Mei-chan, and why are they both so hot?) Especially when you have Jan, who is like. MY LOVE. (And hey! Finally a good reason for acting like a social reject! RAISED BY TIGERS IN THE WOODS LOL.)

P.S. TELL ME WHEN YOU GET TO BAT LI-SENSEI. BECAUSE THAT EPISODE IS PRETTY DAMN AWESOME.

DDD: So it's not Spanish flu or H1N1 but it still sounds pretty harrowing! Please take care of yourself! I hope you feel better soon!

[lazulisong.livejournal.com]

stop that who will keep your younger twin properly cowed if you die? DX I'M not going to do it, I've got enough to do with my own!

uhhhhh I don't suppose it would cheer you up to read the outline of the Terrible AU, would it? >__>

[waxrose.livejournal.com]

DDD: I'm writing orgy porn. Does that make you feel better at all?

LOTS OF FLUID AND REST AND TAKE CARE, OR ELSE.

[ruisetsuna.livejournal.com]
