For those who don't know (lucky you if you've missed my whiney bulletins) I have an ear infection or something. It started last Sunday... not the one we just had, but the one before that. Over the week it seemed to get better sometimes, then worse. Finally, over this weekend it had gotten so bad that I went to the doctor first thing Monday morning. I was given antibiotics, but I honestly think it's getting worse. It's a stabbing pain and LOTS of pressure. I've been eating Ibuprofen like candy - 4 pills every two hours to keep the pain at bay. I'm no baby. But this shit HURTS.
I've been woken up around 2 am every morning this week by PAIN. That just makes me angry. I'm pissed because I'm awake and I'm pissed because it hurts. WTF?? Last night it was hurting so bad that I was just laughing. I didn't know what else to do.
This morning when it woke me at 2 am I must've been losing my mind. I became defiant. I was like, "Fuck you, ear. I haven't snuggled Nick in over a week because of you." So I turned over and snuggled him even though it hurt. It hurt regardless, so why not?? Then I ate fucking ice cream at 4 am. I was so angry that I ate ice cream. Warm is supposed to soothe my ear, but that shit doesn't work - not on THIS ear. So I had ice cream. I showed that bitch who was boss. It wasn't going to rule me anymore. I'm tired of being nice to that ear and all I get is pain. Screw that. Then, around 5 I finally took more Ibuprofen. That ear hurt me. BAD. So that's what it got.
THE END
