thoughts, thoughts and more thoughts

I have been down with extreme fevers, 4am violent chills and insatiable cough spells for the last 2 weeks. Pneumonia is a full on bitch. The good news is that today, I have been able to sit up without getting dizzy and this is the third day that my temperature's been normal (37 degrees Celsius and below, no fevers!) so I believe I can safely say (pwera usog) that I am on my way to recovery.

Thank God, the last weeks have been utter hell, with cough that feels and sounds like death JB had to sleep in another room. He's been very very good to me throughout this whole pneumonia drama - he did the groceries, the laundry, cleaning and sanitizing the house, in charge of picking up dinner, taking me to the doctor's clinic and to the emergency room twice - with one instance we both stayed up from 8pm til 4:30am. that's on top of his usual working hours of 9am to 5pm. How he ever became this man, I have no clue. I am thankful and greatly blessed. Anyhow, I'll save some more cheesiness on the wedding entry.

I've stayed at home this entire time I've been sick. The doctor at the hospital said I wont be the type to get admitted - I wasn't decrepit and i can take care of myself. Ugh. The thing about getting high fevers is that you're on a natural high, not the good kind. I was totally doped with the high temperature; dare I say it was an out of body experience? Probably is. In other words, I accomplished nothing these last two weeks other than try to get better. I wasn't here (home) nor there (Philippines) - I was just sick. What a waste of time, i could've edited my photo backlog. I could've started my Project 365 which i am still in discussion with myself about - I'm not convinced I am 365 days a year interesting to top the fact that I cant even keep up to this blog.

So now, I am about to get rid of you Pneumonia. It's not you, it's me. I've been in too much pain and trouble with you. I cannot wait to get that energy to do my photos again. I would also like to say that I've never looked forward to going to work as much as now, when the thought of being healthy again comes with it.

I need to upload photos to facebook, and do my wedding log. I owe it to my future demented and decrepit self. And I definitely owe this blog some more posts. :)




My office friends sent me these beautiful flowers today. They're so sweet and brightened up my rather lonely day. Thanks guys!
