To the ER and back, and a Christmas Tree Decorating we will go!

Thursday, I totally thought that I was having a heart attack. So, I called my mom and was all like "I am going into the er and you dont have to meet me there, but my chest hurts really bad." And mom who is going into Nursing school was all "So which side is it on, describe your symptoms." And I replied, "Mom. its on my left side, going into my shoulder and arm and I cant move it hurts so bad." So i get off the phone with her and go to the hospital and the doctor orders and EKG, an X-Ray, and a urine test. So the EKG comes back fine, and the X-Ray does too, he never looked at the urine test, but so even though the x-ray comes back fine he asks me if i have ever broken my ribs from coughing to much.

....WHAT? This is how my brain processed this conversation.

Doctor: So, your tests came back normal....you know...did you ever break your Ribs from having something like walking Pnuemonia? Some people do that you know, from coughing too hard.

Me: OMFG!!111!!!!!1!!!! I HAVE A BROKEN RIB?!?!....No, sir. I have never broken my ribs.

Doc: well I think that you have inflammation of the heart and lungs. I dont think it was a heart attack. Youll be prescribed flexeril and naprosyn.

Me:..................k.

Yeah, so then I go to my moms to get the credit card to pay for my prescriptions and i end up working on studying. The next day, after getting my prescriptions, after my final I took a flexeril.

This is a bad idea. If you give a Bourbon a flexeril at nine in the morning, she will want to have a drug induced sleep. And if she will want to have a drug induced sleep it will last until six p.m.

This did not bode so well for the fact that I needed to wake up around noon to study for my State and Local Government final and finishing my Economics take home final. (Ended up with a C in the class, but hey, this semester was hard. It was really my first semester living by myself) So, after staying up till around ten p.m. and then laying in bed for two hours trying to get to sleep I finally slept. And was woken up by my grandma at six fifteen a.m. to go to my government final. I wrote a NOVEL on the essay portion. But then all was well because I sold back my econ book and was able to buy a Christmas Tree and have some cash left over for Jenn's 21st bday party on Monday.

And so now I am decorating the tree, and watching the Skeleton Key with the bestie!!! Pics to soon follow...maybe another photoshop too....hmm....
