hope in Levaquin

i've been sick for the past 3 days and i think last night it hit a point where i thought i was gonna almost die (ok, not really, dont be alarmed)... i was hot, sweaty, my nose was runny, i was congested, my throat was sore, and overall i felt lousy.  at some point im sure i had a fever and taking tylenol only made me feel like i was getting hotter.  thinking that water would help, i had to scrounge up enough energy to go downstairs to fill my glass up.  And although it made my throat feel better as it passed down into my stomach, i was still hot and a mess.  I probably made 4 trips to the water cooler throught my sleepless night.

thats another funny thing that was happening.... i would try to sleep and i would close my eyes and i guess for me it seemed like hours, and i probably did pass out from exhaustion, but something would wake me up and i would check the time, and only 40 minutes had gone by.... i was frustrated.  whats also frustrating is having to blow my nose every 3 minutes just so i can breath.  i'm not sure if its wierd or not, but im glad when i get alot of stuff out, like snot on the tissue i mean, granted its gross and germy, but feeling like all that is coming out makes me think that my lungs are going to be less congested or ill be clear again soon.

ive been trying to read, but i cant concentrate on what im reading and my eyes end up hurting so after 20 minutes or so i stop.  i tried to watch the Eagles game last night also, and that actually made me doze off and on for a while.... who knew their suckiness would allow me to rest.  and at some point when i knew they were finished I shut off the tv, brushed my teeth, and took a sleeping pill... all this around 11pm or so. and guess what...?  I woke up at 2.  i knew i was in for a long night.... which basically then consisted of tossing and turning, walking around my room, and downstairs, washing my face, and trying to write a letter to Rutgers Law.  in-sanity.

im not gonna read over this blog like i usually do ... im tired again, and im gonna lay down.  I hope this levaquin the doctor prescribed for me does something quick.  because if i have another night like last night, i dont know how ill get through it.  cant wait for next week... classes start. yay.
