majutsukaiUgh I think I may have come down with something.
It started Christmas Eve, when I was having uncontrollable coughing fits-- to the point where I didn't get to sleep till around four when I had gone to bed closer to midnight.
Then tonight, our stupid dog got into the neighbors' yard, and I spent the better part of an hour trying to coax him into grabbing range while at the same time grappling with the thorn bushes that line the upper fence area of our yard. The coughing fits resurfaced at that point.
When I finally got the dog back, I took him inside and got help from my mom with moving the minifridge upstairs so she could clean it out-- this is a fridge that an old roommate left behind ages ago, and has done nothing but sit there with a bunch of old beer bottles rotting away inside of it; the last few months of which it has been unplugged for. My mom was thinking I could take it to use in my dorm.
Anyways, it wasn't heavy, but I needed help because of its awkward shape-- I couldn't get my arms around it to pick it up without dropping the back end of it.
We got it upstairs and set it on the counter, just to find out that the cabinets didn't leave enough space for it to sit all the way on the counter. I was unusually short of breath by this point. While my mom went to make room for it somewhere else, I suddenly started to feel light-headed, and leaned back against the counter hoping it would blow over.
It didn't; it just kept getting worse, and my mom told me to go sit down. I did, and after sitting for a minute or two and drinking some water, it started to subside.
The coughing has more or less gone away too, but I'm a little worried about what the light-headedness means. :/
Anyways. Christmas post forthcoming, but not right at this moment. Hope everyone else's was awesome! I had a good time, and got some good stuff.
