Just keeps coming!

Ugh, I am SO SICK. Bossman (and the two Nancies) told me to GTFO and go the hell home today. I think I caught it from Bossman but maybe not. I was sitting on the exam table and he was like, "I need the table, could you go shiver and be miserable somewhere else?" I asked, "Where would you like me to shiver and be miserable?" He said, "How about in your car as you're going home?" GOtta admit that was funny.

Last Wednesday I got my black stripe to my green sash that marks halfway to blue. I kinda thought Sifu was judging me on stuff so I went nuts and was doing the crazy high kicks and double kicks and generally going off my Kung Fu nut. Sije Raq was like, "Aren't you out of breath?" (Strange fact, I don't get out of breath. I get achy and sore, but I don't get winded.) Anyway, this backfired because I ended up (from what it seems like and according to my chiropractor) pulling some obscure, hard to reach muscle in my thigh and hip. Not the piriformis one (which I thought originally) but a different one and now it is crushing my sciatic nerve. Ever had sciatica? No? It's been compared (by mothers) to being in constant labor for days, or being worse than labor. I'm on painkillers and I feel like Dr. House. I hate pills but i seriously would take these for the rest of my life if it kept my legs and back from hurting.

So I hope that if I just take a few days of not kicking things and not walking or anything too much, this will all calm the hell down and I can look back on this entry and hardly remember what it felt like, you know?

Nancy M. said something to me before I went home that concerned me. (First she was telling me that it hurt to look at me because it looked so uncomfortable.) When I told her what part of it was she said, "Oooh, sciatica. You're going to get it even worse when you get pregnant."

It made me--for the first time--seriously reconsider future plans.

The flu, though, I'm sure the aches and pains and chills will be gone by tomorrow then I'll just have a cough. But this other bitch needs to go the hell away and never return.

Hurray for me having just burned the tip of my tongue just about off by sticking it into boiling tea. Dumbass.
