Maybe you've noticed i haven't been in this week...that's ok, your very busy and i understand...this past Sunday night so was i...in fact, i was very worried about what i was going to wear on Monday morning because i was going on Channel 4's Morning Blend and i was concerned that i didn't have anything that would make me look "skinny enough". Then sometime after 10 pm while i was checking out the forecast on the Weather Channel i got what i thought was a backache...i took a couple of Advils and started to finish up the dishes...and then, when the backache got worse, i headed up stairs to take a hot bath thinking that would do the trick. Sometime after midnight when the backache started wrapping around my chest and i couldn't breathe because the pain was so bad, i woke up my husband and he took me to the emergency room. Sometime around 3 am (and one morphine drip later)the doctors were saying it was probably a kidney stone but they were going to do just one more test, which was alright with me because i was thinking i could still get home, get a nap, and then get to The Morning Blend...But then, sometime around 5 am the doctors started using the words "Pulmonary Embolism" and lung and i was like "WHAAAAAAT?!" I would have been far less surprised if the doctors had come back and said they found UFO's in my double chin...it was so far out of left field for me that i really couldn't take in anything else they had to say...didn't they know i had plans for this morning and i was too busy for this...in other words, "could i come back next week and take care of this?"
So it's like this on a Monday morning at 8am...i'm not going to be a guest on the Morning Blend AND i'm sitting in the emergency room waiting for someone from "transport" to take me up to a hospital bed...the girl from transport finally shows up and immediately starts complaining about how she hates Mondays and how it sucks for her cuz she has to work all day and i'm thinking, "man, i wish i was you."
