New Ammonia

After a week of a high fever, I took the advice of a nurse and went in to the emergency room at Kaiser last night. After waiting around for three hours, breathing into some plastic thing-a-ma-jigger, and a chest x-ray, the verdict was in. I have PNEUMONIA. What the fuck? Who gets pneumonia? Not people like me! I felt like I was in some bad Star Trek episode where I was beamed to an alien planet and picked up a crazy virus. But in this episode, it's a really bad, bad, bad, son-of-a-bitch, mother-fucker called bacteria. ACK, son of a bitch! As you can probably imagine, I'm pissed. Not only am I pissed, I'm fucking bored out of my mind! It's difficult to concentrate and do my studies, sitting upright hurts, my cough hurts like I'm about to cough out my bloody lungs, I'm stuck in my own home, and I can't do anything but lay in bed! This is my hell. Who fucking gets pneumonia? bah!!
