The Michael Swayne Story V: King of his Castle

As much as I refuse to accept it, I am sick. I woke up this morning and decided that the best way to get over this cold is to just stay in bed. But I had to deliver to the stores. So, I breathed as little as possible while near people. I don't want people I don't know to get sick because of me. Now, if someone I didn't like was to come in contact with me, I may just cough in their face. Or vomit on command. I've always had an overactive gag reflex, and can throw up if I wanted to. As disgusting as that is, I would be rolling on the floor laughing if I pulled it off.

And what does Dad say? "If you wouldn't wear those shorts when it's 30 degrees out, you wouldn't be sick." Shut up, Dad! This is a head cold, I received it through my nose and/or mouth. Now, when a cold comes along that can penetrate my legs and make me sick, then I will cease to wear shorts. Seriously, all having my legs exposed to the cold does is make them cold. It was my fault for not putting my scarf on lately. I actually think I caught it from Gabby, because her son was sick recently. She was in contact with him, and passed it to me. Either that, or one of the people that visited the office to pay their balances gave it to me.

Also, Dad did offer me some medicine. The same medicine that Suzy gave him when he was sick. I said no, of course. First, I haven't taken medicine in years. Second, the pills were from Suzy, a drug-using, pill-pushing, scumbag that he's screwing. Third, he didn't even know what the pills were meant to heal until I looked it up online. Fourth, I am pretty sure that I don't have vaginitis (which is what the pills are supposed to heal). The reason I bring this up is because after he left my room, he started running his mouth. Saying stuff like, "no good smart A-word" and "I just thought I'd help you out" and his all time favorite phrase "well, F-word you then". Right now, I think Dad would be on my list of people to cough/vomit in their faces.

Anyway, I am feeling a little better right now. My nose is dry from all the wiping with tissues and toilet paper (I don't have any Puffs). I have only sneeze a few times today, which is better than the 30+ yesterday and the day before. Surprisingly, my appetite hasn't diminished much. I have been eating donuts and cookies most of the day, and had four sausage patty sandwiches for dinner. Dad was making a breakfast dinner tonight, and I didn't feel up to eating an egg. I drank some water, soda, and Kool-Aid as well.

Tomorrow Grandma is coming over with some groceries for us. I hope she gets something sweet like candy or granola bars or something. She always brings good stuff. I wouldn't say no to some orange juice or another kind of fruit juice.

I installed Google Chrome on this computer. I still prefer it to IE9. But my computer still won't install Spotify. I have tried everything. It's no big deal, though. With this computer's speed, YouTube videos load fast. I may do some more tinkering some time in the future.

Last night, Itsy Bitsy and Omega slept in bed with me. I had one on either side of me, and was unable to move all night. If I did, they would just get that much closer to me. And despite being nearly six feet tall, I felt like they were all over me burning me up. That could have been my fever though. They are outside right now. I don't want them using the bathroom in my room overnight, so that's why.

There is a music video I want you to watch. It is from the K-Pop group SunnyHill. This is my favorite song of this year. The music video just makes it that much better.

That's all for tonight. I hope to see you around the forums, and until then...

Later!

Michael
