Someone actually said it to me once. Once. "You bring this stuff on yourself!"

It was because I wasn't wearing a coat in winter. Crap, if only I'd known then what I know now.

"Get Better"


Duh...don't you think I'd like that more than anything!?!?!?!

(i feel like they want me to be a magician---poof...I'm all better now!!)

oh wait...maybe if I'd stop hitting my head against this wall...that'd make me ALL better....

And yes, I have had that comment thrown at me before...haha


I went to the ER one night right after my LP and had an awful stomach bug and the 1st thing the ER nurse says to me right after I stopped throwing up was "You look like hell and I have been an ER nurse for 13 years and have seen a lot of sick people".
I really didn't know how to take this, did he mean he thought I was REALLY sick or did he mean I just looked like I had not bathed for 2 months and had not done my hair and make-up that day.
