Today

I went to the walk in clinic today because my stitches weren't looking too hot. I got put on oral antibiotics, 2x's a day for 7 days. Fuck. The nurse, a male, took my vitals and whatever. He saw that I was on a certain medication as he was. He proceeded to tell me about his issues and how he found peace in scripture and god. =| Why he chose to do this? I don't know. He asked me how I dealt with my rage, as if he knew or something (I guess bipolars have that in common). He asked me if I had faith and if that's helped me at all with working through things. What the fuck. Am I the only one that thinks that this is a little odd? That he shouldn't be asking me these sorts of questions? Just take my vitals and GTFO. I felt ok telling him stuff, but I really felt it was unnecessary to probe into my life like that. He had a ring on his finger, so he can't be TOO lonely. Damn...

I was told by the actual doctor that oral antibiotics actually don't mess with the effectiveness of birth control...supposedly it was a study done years ago that wasn't valid at all. That's not to say you can't get pregnant on the pill AND on oral antibiotics, but if you do, they can't determine if it was chance or the antibiotics. y'know?
I guess in order to reassure myself I guess of this newly found information, I checked on the ever-so-reliable web. A lot, of websites (.coms) verified this claim however, the .gov site claimed that they do reduce the effectiveness of birth control. I realize that some antibiotics can cause diarrhea and upset stomach, which can be related to how well the Pill can soak into your body. Shit, it's 11:44pm and I can't recall all the facts. But either way, this is pretty damn interesting to me. I hate when my cycle is fucked up. But who do I trust? the many webpages, a real doctor, or the government? hmmm.....

Next thursday I get my stitches out. Thank god, I just want to be free of band-aids! Shoulda bought stock in them!

I'm dead tired. Went over to my mom's tonight and spent more time over there than I suspected. Being over there makes me miss Dunkin :( He was my big boy and he was so handsome. Love you hun!

Fuck, I can't wait for spring break. I just want to sleep in. That's all I want.


Whatever, I'm going to bed. Night world.
