For those of you that might have been wondering where I've been... I've been sick.  Very sick.  As in "went to the hospital today" sick.  All's better now, but over the past coupe of days I've had a fever that topped out at a hundred and three, cold sweats, fever rashes, dehydration, debilitating head aches, and a cough so violent that I found a way to injure my damned diaphragm.  Truthfully, and as nodeva put it, "I didn't even know you could do that."

On the bright side of things, I turned thirty last weekend, with the help of feanor1138, feanorsgrrl, and harrytheheir, and have managed to stay standing. 

Also, my brother is getting married!  How fucking wild is that?

I'd elaborate and espouse but, let's be serious here, I'm taking pain meds.  I'm not exactly in the right mind space to be trying to form coherent thoughts. 

My head is spinning.  Woke up this morning, got out of bed, walked three feet to the closet door to grab some clean clothes and nearly fell over and cracked my head open.  I had to grab on to the wall so that I didn't fall. 

I still feel dizzy.  Can't really suss out why.  If i sit perfectly still I'm okay, but if I move around too much I get very dizzy very quickly. 

I'm going to take a load off for a little bit, then see how I feel.  Damn it, might have a trip to a doctor's office in my future.  I don't have a GP, so any recommendations?
