Polo says it's time for bed.

Tonight went fairly well. I was quite pleased. I left the house AN HOUR EARLY (much to my chagrin...) and headed off to Walgreen's to get this over the counter nausea medicine thing. Also I got some gum and Junior Mints. Then I went from there straight to work. I was twenty minutes early (traffic was kind of iffy and it took me longer than I thought it would at Walgreen's, so it was good that I left early.) I sat in the back and read for a while, and took some of this medicine. Let me pause to say that it worked well, but it was mainly sugar. Like, a serving is around 5 ml, and it says that 1.87 of that is dextrose and another huge percentage is fructose, then cherry flavoring and color and something else. I don't know why it's so sweet. Maybe all the sugar helps your stomach? Who knows. Anyway, it didn't taste bad, but it did taste strange. And even tough it wasn't strong like cough syrup, it still burned a little to swallow it because, well, it wasn't water. Everything but water seems to agitate my esophagus lately. But I digress.
I was feeling a little shaky for a half hour, then I started having trouble with my sinus drainage and sent mom a text message asking her if she could bring me some Sprite when she came up to the library. I knew it would burn like nobody's business going down, but I thought it might help to clear up all that stuff I was choking on. Of course, by the time she got there I didn't really need it anymore. I took a sip anyway and it hurt like crazy. Maybe I will never be able to drink sodas again...that makes me sad.
So after work I came home and ate some of this turkey roll-up thing I got at Wal-Mart earlier with Brandon, and I think I drank my ice water too fast because I'm not feeling so swell. Not bad, necessarily, but I'm having trouble swallowing and my stomach feels...iffy. We will see where this goes.
Brandon's work schedule got changed so now he's expecting me to come over tomorrow, except I already have plans. I have to go to Half Price Books and sell some stuff so I will have money to get us some dinner tomorrow night (Kelli is coming over), plus I'm tired of the big box of books being in the back of my car. Then I have to stop by LifeWay and get Brandon's cousin a wedding present (she is getting married next weekend and a lot of the stuff left on her registry is a tad bit out of my price range.) Then I have to come home and clean my room. My desk is a mess, I have to do laundry and vacuum, and I still haven't found the remote for my DVD player. And I'm sure that in there somewhere I will have to take a nap or three (I have been so tired lately!) We will see. Perhaps tonight I will get to feeling guilty enough about not only skipping out on the few hours we were supposed to spend together today (instead of watching our netflix movie, he had to take me to the doctor) but also not being with him tomorrow, and I just might end up paying him a visit. We will see. I'd really rather stay at home. Probably.
I am going to go make my bed and get some stuff ready for sleepy time (I have to take medicine! Yay. Benadryl, acid reducer, and probably some of that sugary nausea-fighting syrup). And my eyes are burning because they are tired.
All in all I am very thankful that I had such a good, trauma-free evening at work. And I pray that tomorrow (and Saturday, and so on and so forth) goes just as well. Minus the freaking out in the morning thing.
