So I was just blog surfing a bit by hitting the "next blog" button up at the top.
Ummm....every single blog was about Jesus. I lie - one was by a Muslim woman. But all the other ones, and I mean like 10 or more in a row were god or christian related.
For real?
I mean, people feel connected and want to write the good word. Good for them. I was just amazed that every single blog I hit was religious based.
Does blogger go to blogs it thinks you want? If so there is definitely something wrong with that system. Where it thought it saw that I wanted that is beyond me. Or is Blogger trying to save me after I posted a picture of the kitchen witch?
Hard to tell.
I had to break down and get antibiotics. I know...right after I posted about holistic health. But that stuff is not going to heal me in the immediate future and I literally cannot breathe. Like I am so stuffed up that not only can I not breathe, but my nose is running. You know what that means? I cannot blow my nose. I have to sit there with a freaking tissue (notice I am trying to behave with my language?) held up against my schnaze.
I am so unbelievably gross right now, I cannot even deal with myself. I have become a mouth breather for crying out loud. It's hard to drink water even.
The silver lining, because you know I always find one, is that - well two things:
1) I was able to breathe for approximately one minute and was cheering, much to the delight of my boyfriend who I was on the horn with. Poor guy has had to deal with me complaining and mouth breathing and trying to blow my nose for days now.
2) The only thing that is at all pleasing and easy to eat is ice cream. So yes, I am indulging. I had coconut yesterday and bought some butter pecan and vanilla (there were on sale - gotta love buy on get one free) when I went to get drugs this evening.
I hate having to take drugs, but I simply could not take it anymore. I hate the side effects that sometimes antibiotics cause, but decided that I need some air.
Which is a great song by Urge Overkill by the way, "Need Some Air". I will have to listen to that tomorrow or right now. Man, they are fantastic. Happy listening, should you decide to.
I couldn't find it for you online, but did find "Sister Havana". Enjoy!

Cool song choice, baby. These guys sound kind of familiar, but I'm pretty sure I haven't heard of them before. Maybe they were in a movie soundtrack or something?
ReplyDeleteI hope those antibiotics do the trick, and you feel better soon. Being sick is no fun, and you've had more than your share lately. When you were able to breathe for a minute on the phone with me, I was hoping you were finally catching a break.
I'm at a loss regarding all the jesus blogs. You'd think that if Blogger were trying to guess what you wanted to see, it would provide some kind of user ratings, or like/dislike options.
OK, so you went to a doc. I hope it was an ENT. I'm sending good vibes your way and keeping you in my prayers. Be good to you!
ReplyDeleteAs for the Jesus/religious blogs, just skip 'em my friend. It takes all kinds. You know where I stand on this, I'm just not a proselytizer. Live and let live. Other blogs I follow on here are theatre and fashion related and I really don't surf others, but that lets me know there's more than religion out here.
Get well soon, my friend.
@Pack - Thank you. You know, my dad used to say that a shot of something would help. I should try it. I think I actually have some in the house.
ReplyDeleteMac - they sang "Girl, You'll Be a Woman Soon" on the Pulp Fiction soundtrack. I have some of their stuff. We'll have a listen. They are a Chicago band as well!
ReplyDeleteI have had more sporadic breathing moments today, so am getting better. Finally. XOXO
Alicia - Thank you my friend. I know where you stand and I appreciate it as well. I always feel a twinge guilty because you are the exact kind of person that I do not want to offend. You are kinda what it's really all about. It's the major hypocrisy that really gets me. Know that whenever I go on a tyraid, I exclude you from the people I am talking about. I say this because there is a rant a-brewing. I've just been too sick to formulate it.
ReplyDeleteI actually just called my Dr. and told her I wanted antibiotics because I have a sinus infection. She knows I don't play. When there is something that I do not know what's up, I manage to have her assistant squeeze me in. I am so paranoid sometimes that she laughs. Like the time I was convinced I had herpes, when it was just a skin irritation. and it was near the business, not on it. But she knows that when I say I have something, I am right on. Makes my health care alot easier.
Stay well!
You could never offend me, friend, I just wanted to let you know that nuts are everywhere, not just in religion More wars are fought in the name of God than any other reason. Hypocrites exist everywhere, too. It's not an exclusive club.
ReplyDeleteGlad you talked to the doc. Nothing is more important than your health. Hope you're on the mend, my friend.
