oh fluffernutters.

i thought that one of my newly-stretched to 12g ears might be getting infected and now i'm sure. the site is swollen, tender and red, and the lymph nodes behind my jaw are swollen up like crazy. it's like having two marbles implanted under my skin. boooooooearns.

i'm doing salt soaks, and hopefully this will clear up soon.

mmm... discourse on infection. aren't you all so damn glad you read my journal? ow! fucking lymph node throbbs like a motherfucker. i suppose i should stop poking at it. must go get more salt water.

*leaves*

ahh blessed hot compress how you ease my pain.

in other news spent the last hour, not doing my psychlit assignment (big suprise,i know i know) but instead, talking to a guy i went to highschool with and still see around the uni campus. oh, i've also had a ridiculous crush on him since the 9th grade. but have never said anything because he hated me. i mean HATED me. as in "actually-wrote-down-a-rather-inventive-list-of-things-he-hated-about-me-and-passed-it-around-to-all-our-mutual-friends-in-the-eleventh-grade" hated me.

i know, i know, bad after-school special waiting to happen.

but we get along fairly well now, so i just spent the last hour talking to him aobut his girl troubles and trying to cheer him.

so basically i'm swollen, infected, lonely and pathetic. yummmm!!!

i share this, not really to elicit vacous sympathy, but to, hopefully, make others who have felt that their lives were being slowly sucked into black holes better. or at least, to point out that we're all going to hell in the same damn handbasket.
