Never Wal-Mart


In Yelm, Wash., the city council has banned all mention of "Wal-Mart" or "big-box stores" from council meetings. Speakers using the terms are asked to sit down.

Well I am back at work. I am happy to be back here if I didn't feel sick. See, for the last three days I have really only laid in bed and slept/watched TV/read/watched movies/tried to eat. On two occassions I ventured outside and on the first came back feeling twice as sick as I did before hand. The second was yesterday and was really more of a test to see if I could handle work today, which was a decided yes be/c I can't sit in my apartment anymore.

There were a few highlights. A few low lights. But first, a big thank you to Eddie for coming to take care of me from Thursday pm until this am. He was fantastic. got me food to eat (much of which I couldn't due to the fact that this antibiotic cannot be taken with antacids. Seriously), and he kept me company, made me laugh and was an excellent nurse.

I have surgery on Friday...so there's another weekend down the drain. I really just want to be back to myself; able to work out, eat and then eat tums, go to the beach...work without feeling dizzy, feeling ill, feeling sneezy. Oh well. Such is life.

I am eating soup and bread right now and am really, really not hungry but I know that i can't stop eating or else I will only heal slower.

Boo.

We did watch Labyrinth over the weekend. OHMYGOD do I adore that movie. Its been too long. Jennifer Connelly basically looks and sounds the same, lol. So many puppets. So many laughs.

I suppose thats all. I am reading a book about those really important, really intellectual, really super worldly events that merely depress me. I choose to avoid ranting about my intellect as it speaks for itself. Haha, j/k. I don't know, I guess I have just run out of words to express how depressing things can be. And how exposure to the history and the details in global politics only further depresses me.
