hey. just got back from a few hours at the hospital. GM is still in the "holding pen" -- and besides the "smidge of congestive heart failure" and the "touch of chronic bronchitis", she now has "borderline pneumonia"...
eh... apparently, her body is going about getting sick all half-assed, can't commit heartily to one illness, has to be a smidge, a touch or borderline.
fantastic.
my body on the otherhand has decided full-on that it's sick. i am now popping some anti-biotic that i found under the bathroom sink (at home, not the ER) and downing a little robitussin... i plan on heading back to the hospital around 5 or 6 but kinda want to nap...
i'd emailed/called work earlier and my boss rocks and said not to worry, all's being taken care of, which is a relief... although i feel like a slacker for not being able to go in... so i emailed the kickass IT dude and he sent me the info so i can download some zipped thing and work from home... i will set that all up tonight "just in case" any godawful thing like this happens again...
on a lighter note: i seriously want to do a test run of the mashed potatoes tonight or today - maybe i will make 'em and bring a little into the hospital for gigglemom to try out and critique... (again, i will get into the details of the mashed a little later....)
keep voting... i am (at present) tied for 1st.
(by the way. there was a cute dude dragging my mom off for an echocardiogram this morning... funny, too... no red hair, and didn't look irish, but he was cute...)
