i'm squirting salt up my nose

Well... using the wisdom that God has put in me to use... I am choosing that perhaps... PERHAPS... I should start making sure I have atleast one day off from work a week... so that I can sleep in and take care of myself. I went to the doctor again today and came out with the diagnosis of a sinus infection. A bacterial sinus infection, which is less common than say a viral one... for those of you who don't know, a cold or the common flu or most tonsillitus... those are viral things. Things you have to wait out. Less common are things like strep.. (which I had a month ago) and the sinus infection I'm fighting now. Not to go into gory details, but it's been painful and bloody and stuffy and not a lot of oxygen. So now, I'm on pink pills (which are slightly smaller than horse pills) and I have noticed a difference already. Beauty... The funny thing is, this time around the bacterial wagon, I only got one swollen, painful tonsil. The other one stayed just fine. I have half a sore throat. It's a crazy world we live in.

The doctor advised maybe I slow down because I've been getting sick too often for someone my age (sigh... it's good to be young...) so I should take better care of myself. And I will. Soon.

Ah yes, getting to the salt. The doctor also said to get a saline nasal spray to moisturize my nose and get some of the gunk flowing because I've been having a lot of blood come out and it's cuz it's so dry up there. Good times. But on the container it said, "Sodium chloride solution".... Good ol' NaCl. SALT. I laughed. And then was slightly disgusted because the salt water went up my nose and then down my throat and did in fact, taste just like salt water. (which it is)... redundant, I know.

I am done now. To bed with me. Up early with me tomorrow morning. Alas... such is life. Basically I just wanted to tell everyone i'm squirting salt up my nose.
