Humid Heat Sucks!!!!

I use to love the summer time. It seems that now that I am older (not by much) the heat really starts to get to me, it could be because it’s a humid heat and not a dry heat. For example this morning it’s about 73 degrees, I don’t have central air, anyways I was putting my make-up on and it was just sweating it’s self off. I was a miserable cookie. So I have to improvise in these hot days, running back and forth in front of the ac and back to the bathroom to finish up. Another thing that I have to fight with during the summer time, blow drying my hair. I have a shit load of hair and it takes a little while to get it dry. So I have the heat of the dryer and the heat of the nature forcing themselfs down my back. I am so happy to hop in the car and get to work knowing it will be nice in the office. I am lucky that I don’t work in the heat like Aaron. He was telling me in the shop yesterday it was close to 99 degrees. (He’s a welder incase I have never said so) His boss says if it hits 105 degrees they will send the guys home.

So I have been sick. *pouts* The first time started on July 4th, btw Happy Late 4th! I had a fever and couldn’t do much. By the 5th Aaron went and bought a thermometer, because I was scaring him, needless to say my fever that morning was 102.6. So he calls my boss while I’m in the shower (planning on going to work because it’s just not a day I should be away), tells him and he’s like "oh no she’s not coming in". Aaron takes me at 8:15 a.m. that morning to our local clinic. Mind you I haven’t been in a doctors office for years. They run a urine test, and decide it MUST be kidney stones. By this time I had broke that fever and the chills were setting in. I was crying because I was scared and hurting. They say "well we don’t have the right test to make sure it’s kidney stones, so we want you to go to the ER, we are sending with you the urine test so they won’t have to run another. Pay up front." No first off I have no health insurance. Yeah I know! So off we go to the ER in the next town Bolivar. My mother wanted to go so we pick her up to. They both of them are freaking out because I am never sick. Get to ER and they tell me "They didn’t run the right tests on your urine, we have to run our own." So I pee once more in a cup and wait. Thankfully being at the ER they get an ivy in me and put in some pain medicine. I am freezing at this point and pissed because the lady that drew my blood "hit" my nerve in my arm which fucking hurt like a bitch and she has the "nerve" to say "oh well at least your nerve works!" I wanted to slap the shit out of her. Then my male nurse has me help him put the ivy in. At this time I wanted to walk out and say fuck it let me boil till I die! They come back with the test and tell me it’s not kidney stones but a severe kidney infection. They hook up some antibotics to my ivy and give me a bunch of prescriptions. At this point I realize my ER bill would be over a thousand bucks. They release me and I talk to the pay lady. "Oh well this is your bill, Oh you have no insurance, well call this lady in a couple of days to get your final bill and set up a payment plan." "This isn’t the full amount (bill showing $759 that she hands me)?" "Oh no it’s the minimum bill not the final, you do need to pay something before we can release you." So I pay her $40 to shut her up. Get outside and mom says oh honey you didn’t have to give her money. *grrrrrr* Head home to rest and guess what my temp rises to 103.6. *yay what fun* So I went through fevers for about 3 days after the trip to ER. Take all the medicine and bam I get hit with a fucking head cold. Now I’m blowing snot out like you wouldn’t believe. (Yeah I know so sexy huh?) I’ve been taking over the counter medicine but it hasn’t done much. I’d go to the Doctor again but I can’t afford another bill. So I’ll keep taking the over the counter shit and see where that takes me. One thing that really gets to me is I am a very healthy person. I haven’t been sick like this in years. Oh well right ...

Aaron, Chris & Travis has won another paintball tournament. They are doing really good. I hope they keep it up! They have another tournament Saturday. One thing that is a positive for me out of this is the last gun Aaron won he sold on ebay and bought me a lawn mower. *fuck yeah* So I am super pleased.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

I finally got to go to Foreplay last Saturday night! Wooohooo... was that a bunch of fun. Yes it’s a strip joint. My best friend Jason is the bartender and well he can bartended. Within 5 minutes of me being there he had three shots of tequila in me. At first I asked for a soda to take this cold medicine, he’s all like "what you need a tequila shot?". "No I need to take this medicine so I feel better." "Tequila it is Aasta!". Now I can’t say NO to him now can I. But I did finally. I did enjoy the time there but it wasn’t enough. I am going back real soon and this time I won’t say no. *lol* Jacob, Aaron’s younger brother, went with us. He had a GREAT time and wants me to go with him more often. I guess since the strippers thought I was "awesome", Jacob thought I was "awesome". *lol* So just incase you didn’t know ...I’m awesome! *giggles* The girls were so sexy & sweet. There was this one that was to die for. *mmmMmmm* Yes I must go back soon.

So I was going to write about Aaron and my fight we had about the end of last month. It was one of the biggest fights we have had yet I stood my ground and didn’t break down crying. But everything is better once more so I will not touch the fight here. I just hope the things we said to each other stick and that we can make our lives better for us. It’s so hard to get him to understand that everything I do I do for us. I will say one thing, I asked him why he doesn’t treat me "great or good", his response was "I don’t treat you bad or good". This really upset me. I just can’t see that. I treat him so good and I want to, here he is and he just doesn’t think of it that way. *deep breath* But he is trying more now. I just don’t understand him most the time. It’s frustrating. Some days it hurts deeply. Then other days it’s like "who the fuck are you and what did you do with the asshole". *smiles*

Guess what .... I got a raise too after being sick! Wooohooo!!! I was so pleased with my bossman. Even though I was out for a day and a half when I got back he gave me a raise and a new title ....ready for this ... Supply Clerk!!! Hot Damn!!! *giggles* Not like I haven’t been ordering supplies for a while now, it’s just now I have the title. I do have to say this is the most money I have ever work for and I am tickled pink. I know I deserve it and all it’s just so hard for me to believe. Thanks to the one looking out for me. The really cool part about it all is that I was the only one in the office to get this raise. Usually everyone gets the same raise but not this time.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

I better stop here and save the rest for another day.

I wish all my friends a wonderful rest of the week and a terrific weekend.

Looks like I’ll be getting some relief from the heat and maybe some rain too.

Fingers crossed.
