The sun'll come out tomorrow... Right?

[psyche29]

So I am currently working on Day 2 of the pounding headache from hell, and I am not pleased about it. Drugs don't work, sleeping didn't work, alcohol (not a lot, just a sip or two of wine) didn't help. And on top of it, I have a dry, hacking cough that turns the dull pounding into a sharp icepick with each new bout.

I'm the graceful one this week, too. On Sunday I was juggling, amusing Mikey and several other family members, when I bashed my arm on the corner of the mission-style sofa. Scraped it, knew I'd have a bruise. Except on Monday morning, there was a hard little bump under the bruise. It's now nearing the end of Thursday, and the bump hasn't gone away. The bruise is only barely fading, as well.

So now I'm terrified I might have to go to the doc, and panicking to the point of being physically ill because if I go, they might want to stick me. The last time I got stuck, I was emotional and weepy for three days afterward, and refused to let anyone touch me. This is so not good.

Then on Monday, I got new shoes. Gorgeous shoes that I simply adore. I put them on right there at work (I'd ordered them from a lady there who sells Avon), then promptly tripped over nothing (although I'm suspicious about who's got an invisibility cloak). Landed - with all my considerable weight - on my left knee, down on the cement floor.

Hard.

It's Thursday now, and I can finally walk and climb stairs without pain. But my knee is every color of the rainbow (which is actually kind of cool-looking) and I can't put any pressure on it or I literally see stars.

You know, like last night, when Mikey accidentally bashed his bowling ball into it. *sigh*

As if that wasn't enough, the outside of my right foot, near the pinky toe, is a little swollen and sore. I don't know what the hell I stepped on, but it is not making me happy.

And the topper for the whole thing? I have my period.

Again.

God, my head hurts.

But on the bright side, I finished my longest chapter ever and got it posted up. Finally. *lol* It went into an eighteenth page...shocked the hell out of myself. *does a half-hearted wiggle of pleasure*

Oh no, Kim! I hate weeks like that, although I have to admit I've never been whacked in the already-bruised knee by a bowling ball. I am a complete klutz too (especially when a lot of people are around, go figure). Anyway... the sun WILL come out! My awful week has gotten a lot better, so I can guarantee it will do the same for you! And something awesome did come out of this week.. at least you have some gorgeous new shoes! :)

And see? I told you your week would get better. ;)
