Baaa humbug. For me, the swine flu was just like my case of severe Mono. Only a shorter time frame and with severe… well we won’t go there! (NVD- abv for the nurses) Hospital ER visits are no fun and neither are shots in the buttocks. Haven’t had one of those since I was probably 1. At one point I was yelling “PLEASE NO!! NOT THE BUTT!!! THE DELTOID, THE VASTUS LATERALIS, ANYWHERE BUT THE BUTT!! I DONT HAVE A BUTT!! ouch..” Nurses make the worse patients and so its true 
So much for great hand-washing technique, multivitamins, extra C, 1000 mg of vitamin D, orange juice, and a healthy appetite. However, I will suggest those precautions and supplements with others to prevent the terrible virus at ALL COSTS. I’m still rather nauseous and hardly able to eat. Thank you to everyone for the sympathies, prayers, get well wishes and phone calls! It meant a lot even if I was incapable of sounding gleeful.
Great movies to watch while on your sick bed:
Lassie- oh the nostalgia
500 Days of Summer- lovely clothes, lovely hair, lovely humor, and what a true “story about love.”
You’ve Got Mail- Its my comfort movie
Runaway Bride- Julia Roberts can wear no makeup, her boyfriends flannel shirt, grandma pants and still look great. It gives me hope.
Reba- not a movie, but Van cracks me up. Laughter is the best medicine.
Transformers- the 1st not the 2nd. The 2nd was terrible.
Bambi- This was when I wanted to feel terrible
The Lion King- and this was when I wanted Timon and Pumba to cheer me up.
Here’s to the end of H1N1! May I never see it again! TAKE THAT!
So glad you are better and over that nasty, nasty flu. Don’t let that happen again.
I miss you.
Come get coffee when you’re fully virus-free.
Also, 500 Days of Summer=my life this year and my favorite movie in a long time. Some girl I used to work with told me I had Zooey Deschanel clothes and hair. I just need a JGL and a story to end where we are craaaazy in love. So cute.
You totally do have the Zooey look! I miss you something terribly. I despise nursing school and the way it causes me to be isolated from everyone. The brighter side of the flu was that I got to spend time with John and with the family! Back to life on Monday. Hey I’m at my house- walk on over!
Lets get coffee and soon. I need a day to feel pretty. I don’t feel so pretty =/
You are pretty no matter what, you dork.
How long will you be at mom and dad’s?
All weekend, come see me! I don’t have a car.. I called mom crying wednesday to pick me up and take me to the doctor..
