Well basically I have asthma... I got a cold last week. It moved into my chest during the weekend, and I didn't help it by smoking cigs and weed. lots of weed. I woke up at like 5am and could barely breathe. I drove to the hospital which is about 5 mins away and they took my in right away - they don't fuck with asthma.
I'm surprised I am not craving cigs more. Also the bed is killing my back, they are giving me vicodin every 6 hours, which works for about 3 hours, and is the only time I can sleep. Maybe if I didn't take painkillers recreationally it would actually help me more - so this is all basically my fault.
I really really hope I am out tomorrow.

To get up to go to the bathroom I have to unplug the IV from the wall, take off oxygen and breathing monitor. then I have to wheel the IV machine with me. my back hurts. And this takes way too long, not to mention they are pumping me full of stuff so I pee every 2-3 hours.

I know this post will die without hawt pics, but check out these dreams I wrote about: yes they are tl;dr

"Strange dream. Woke up July 6th before 2am.

Eddie and I are at some kind of big, busy club. I think Eddie drove us, not sure.
Somehow Billy Corgan is playing (by himself) with a drummer (not Chamberlin), but he is sharing the stage with basically 'open-mic' performers, alternating kind of, or just letting other people play when they want to. I am contemplating playing a song, but at the same time not really serious. At one point I go to 'check' if it is really BC playing, and it's not. During the dream, there are a lot of different 'performers', including a (homeless?) guy with really long hair, two teenagers both sitting playing guitar/singing, others I can't remember. Every time I look it's someone different or the BC lookalike (who, in my dream, is a pretty good but not great lookalike).
-----
I am laughing so hard it hurts. I remember thinking in the dream, this is really laughing, when it's fucking painful. I haven't had real laughter, that absorbs you like that, in a long time, and it surprises me. A friend of Eddie's (Mark?) is trying to get us in to another party after this one, but there is some kind of problem. He assures us he will find a way and not to worry about it. I think it might have been Mark cause the guy had an accent, but I'm not really sure. We never make it, but the dream ended very early. Also at one point during this, I see a man in a blue shirt with a'crosshatch' kind of design, who I immediately recognize as my friend Mark (McLaughlin). I immediately stop him as he walks past us, saying something like "How the hell did we both end up at the same party?" As soon as he stops, he is transformed from Mark into two older (50's) ladies, both of whom look vaguley familiar. As I apologize to them for thinking they were someone else, the lady who morphed from Mark insists that she DOES know me, and we try to figure out how, but I am totally lost and pretty baffled that Mark transformed into this person. I ask her where she works, etc, but at this point the dream is unraveling and I wake up."

yes my cat bothered my asthma, but she was awesome and I didn't give a fuck. I actually had an arguement with my doctor about this. Right after my first big asthma thing I put down vinyl floor, got air purifiers and tried to upkeep on the hair more. In my opinion this little kitty was worth the wheezing... she was really something, she fucking waited at the door for me every day and never left my room except to eat and shit. The night before I put her to sleep she was so sick and I just kept bringing her water and stuff (on my bed), and cuddling with her. anyway, enough of that I'm actually kinda teary eyed...

actually that whole thing was about an aim netphoria chat where wHATcOLOR was drunk and got out and got ice cream and then complained it sucked.
Honestly I'm normally fine with smoking, just when I get a cold it always goes into my chest - and that's when I need to stop. I mean, I shouldn't do it at all, but I'm just being stupid at that point. I'm either fine or I'm really bad, usually.

Well basically I have asthma... I got a cold last week. It moved into my chest during the weekend, and I didn't help it by smoking cigs and weed. lots of weed. I woke up at like 5am and could barely breathe. I drove to the hospital which is about 5 mins away and they took my in right away - they don't fuck with asthma.
I'm surprised I am not craving cigs more. Also the bed is killing my back, they are giving me vicodin every 6 hours, which works for about 3 hours, and is the only time I can sleep. Maybe if I didn't take painkillers recreationally it would actually help me more - so this is all basically my fault.
