Parable of the Pleurisies and the Tetanies

Well, I have pleurisy. Yay for me. After a long and scary visit to the hospital with the prospects of a collapsed lung or a blood clot in my lungs it turns out I have good old pleurisy. Thing is, I should have been sick before this happened. I guess I'm just finishing off the route dad should have taken at the end of his pneumonia. This isn't the most fun I've had in my life. It definitely does not compare to Disneyland. Hum bug. But as a reference for the future, do not go get your blood drawn in the hospital lab. They try to kill you. Kidding....sort of. I passed out after I saw my blood in a vial instead of the normal after you get stuck with a needle. I then went into tetany. Basically its like right after your leg goes to sleep and it tingles when it wakes up. Only this tingling was not nice and got so out of control it crippled my arms, hands, and legs, for about an hour. It was painful and terrifying. The pathologist told me it could have been from hyperventilating after passing out, but I'm pretty sure I didn't start hyperventilating until after the tetany hit. So who knows, it may have been I hadn't drank enough milk and my calcium levels were low. I'll never refuse milk again. Moral of the story, if you have a weird pain, ignore it. If you go to a doctor, they'll make it worse. hahaha good luck getting me to ever come see you as a doctor tory.

I AM A MAN!!!...not really, but pretend for the effect

I want you all to know that your baby sister has a backbone and is not all talk. Some of you know that I was intending to resign as club president after spring break. Well, I decided that I wouldn't and I would just ride it out. Well, a few things happened this week and I realized that I couldn't take the abuse any longer without killing someone or killing myself. Neither was a good option so I sent Ms Dunn this email yesterday morning.

"Circumstances require that I resign from my position as club president effective immediately. I have taken the time to evaluate my current goals and have chosen to pursue new opportunities in Bonneville.
I wish the Thespian Club success in their endeavors to share each other's love for the theatre.
Regretfully,
Christine McCracken"

And that was it. I'm proud to say that I was civil and diplomatic. So I'll have you know, I'm not going to let someone like her ever run me over again. I know better now.
