learn to blow my nose
i'm about to die. 2 years ago

i have been sick for TWENTY THREE days now. it started out as a cold, turned into strep (which i’ve never had before), turned into bronchitis, and now i have a really bad stuffy head cold.

i think it would help if i could blow my nose cuz i can feel the snot getting all congested. but i can’t! i put a kleenex to my nose and nothing. Nada. Zilch.


go back to reading books that actually qualify as literature
i'm reading 2 years ago

Memoirs of a Geisha- does that count? i definitely wanted to read it first before seeing the movie. i’m almost done with it, but i have to admit i’m getting a little annoyed though. i can only take so many japanese names in at once without getting everyone all mixed up. and she’s gone on and on about how she’s been tortured in the geisha house. OK i get it- you’ve had a rough life. now can we move on with the plot, please?!


go to a strokes concert
unbelievable. 2 years ago

the show was last wednesday night and i somehow managed to get sick that day. the last time i was sick was, coincidentally enough, the last time the strokes were in town! Why, God, WHY?! Anyway, i had a fever and a major headache and could feel a really sore throat coming on, but i rallied and went anyway.

of course i went and screamed out all the lyrics i knew at the top of my lungs. i ended up with strep throat a few days later. but i HAD to go. after all, you only live once.
