the instant the antibiotics get in my body I feel 500 times better.



Wow I must be off my game, I used the number 500 instead of 700. If you know me, you know that when I exagerate numbers I do it in sevens. i.e. "he was like 70 feet tall" or "She ate 700 gallons of cole slaw".



Back to the sickness... I can't swallow pills. So I have been crushing them up and throwing the crushed-ness in my mouth and drinking it down with juice. You can only do this when you aren't taking time release pills—and I'm not. However these pills when they are crushed up taste like burnt hair smells. It is quite disgusting. It would normally take me about an hour to finish one pill because they taste so gross. Today however was different.



As I sat at my desk, looming over my pill cutter/smasher I decided today would be the day when I sucked it up and took it like a man—hypothetically. I grabbed a tiny bottle of apple juice from the fridge at work, and started my daily 10:30am gross pill-swallowing-process. I sucessfully took my whole pill in a matter of minutes. The thought that got me through it was "There are dying children who don't get medication when they are sick. Who gives a crap if it taste like the smell of burnt hair. Suck it up Kocka and take it like a man."



And I did.



I am going to the big bad hospital today (in 15 minutes as a matter of fact). Getting a CT Scan of my head per doctors orders. I havn't ever gotten a CT Scan, only an MRI so this will be a new experiance. I also rented 3 movies last night so after I am done I will go home and veg on the couch for the rest of the day. Nora, MarthaJoy and I watched Eight Below last night. FYI for all my guy readers (like anyone reads this, let alone dudes...) If you want to know what it takes to be a real man—freaking watch that movie. How cares if it's a Disney flick, or that it's rated PG.... Any man that is like Paul Walker in that movie probably has what it takes to be my man.



So watch it.


Oh, and check this shizz out.... all mine. Should be in my hands come monday.





Unts.
