Antibiotics

I think this past week, I've been the sickest I've been in years. Thursday, I started to feel really weak, and my chest started hurting. I still went out for a drink with a friend, and I didn't think anything of it until I got home, and realized I was rocking a fever. The fever stuck around for FOUR DAYS. It was fun. I had to call off of work (something I never do), and go to the minute clinic at CVS (something I also never do). Ninety dollars later, and it's bronchitis, turning into pneumonia. Another thirty dollars later, and I'm on powerful antibiotics. Unfortunately, by the time I had meds in my system, my cough was so heinous it caused back spasms which lasted another two days. Honestly, I can't even remember the last time I felt this awful. I even had to cancel coffee night with my best friend, which I hate doing. I usually go even if I'm a little under the weather. Ugh. I'm still pretty weak, but I feel so much better. Unfortunately, I'm still too weak for waitressing. I had a very mild night at work, and I was still completely exhausted. And I work again tomorrow. I have no idea how that's going to go. I got my tax return this week, which went right into savings. I'm desperately trying to save for a car. It's slow going, but I'm still optimistic. It would be easier if I could find full time work, but no luck yet. This weekend should be interesting. I'm helping my friend with stage one of moving. I'm going to use her move as an excuse to spend as much time around Chicago as possible this spring/summer. Note to self: take lots of corny pictures.
