An Open Letter To My Stomach Bug

Posted by Miss Jaime at Thursday, January 10, 2008 2 comments
Dear pestilent swine:

For the past four days, I've been feeling like this guy:



OK, maybe not exactly like that, but you get the point.

I've been on the Lindsay Lohan health plan for the past week. No, not a continuous stream of vodka, cigarettes, semen and blow, but rather ejecting every bit of nutrition from my body with extreme force.

In four days, all I've eaten are six Ritz-Bits Peanut Butter Crackers, 3/4 of a bottle of Gatorade, five Triscuits and two glasses of ginger ale. I tried a slice of pizza last night, but no -- you had to rob me of my favorite food. For that, I will never forgive you, you utter bastard.

That being said, I'm evicting your ass immediately. Get out and take your virulence with you. Oh and tell your buddy, Mr. Head-Cold-From-Hell to GTFO too. Seriously -- I've had enough of being Little Miss Infirmary.

You have twenty-four hours.

Sincerely:

The Management.

How To Make A Grouchy Jaime

+ Searching for a vein in my arm is not like searching for the Holy Grail. It's not that hard. I am not Cusho -- the Human Pincushion. I am a 24-year-old with a slightly irrational fear of blood and needles. Be nice, be sympathetic but most of all, be quick. The last thing I need is for someone to tell me that I, "scared the vein away" before they jam another needle into my flesh. Inept medical 'professionals' = Grouchy Jaime.

+ The knowledge that the three Band-aids Medi-Wench slapped onto my flesh today will have to painfully be ripped off very soon = Grouchy Jaime

+ Paps' bedside manner = Grouchy Jaime. Yes, I've always been scared of needles and blood and no, saying, 'it's not so bad' and telling me to, 'deal with it' has never worked to make me feel better. Why, dear God, do you think it would work now? Oh and telling me that Sparky would treat me the exact same way? LIES! She would hold my hand and then, procure both pizza and DVDs for the both of us.

+ No car. No Chipotle. No Publix subs. No Wawa Iced Tea. All of these (or lack thereof) = Grouchy Jaime

+ The Best Friend might not be able to make it down to El Dub this week. No quality time = Grouchy Jaime.

+ Missing my baby = Grouchy Jaime. No kisses, no bean game (no, it's not some bizarro covert sexual reference. I'm talking about Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine), no Veronica Marsathons, no waking up to awesome music = Grande No Whip, Extra Foam, Double Shot Grouchy Jaime.
