Sorry about the absence, dear readers. First I was offline for a couple of weeks due to moving. Then I was busy opening the new store, and now I'm sick.
I thought it was just a cold--you know, perfectly normal stuff--but I'm not so sure now. Whatever I have started with a mild sore throat Tuesday night at work, by the time I got home my throat was extremely sore, and then whatever it is moved into my lungs, so I can't breathe without the inhaler.
Life doesn't look good right this minute. I know I ought to go to a hospital, but I don't want to get myself admitted. Last time I was admitted to a hospital I ended up briefly addicted to morphine and had to detox over a very unpleasant day and a half. I know that sounds like nothing from the point of view of a hardcore drug addict, but it was a big-ass deal for me.
Anyway, if I'm still having problems in the morning I'll get myself to a hospital. If I feel better, I'll go to work. Either way it'll be something.
