in which i am needy

[amand_r]

Last week I went to the Urgent care because my throat was sore on one side to the point where my neck was sore. The doctor gave me a Z-pak and some magic swizzle, which didn't work because my throat is sore on the outside. The antibiotic, however, worked like a charm and in 2 days I was feeling better. I finished the Z-pak Saturday and all was well.

EXCEPT.

Everything came raging back Monday night. I was due to see my doctor Wednesday, so I held on, and now, I'm still recovering. He gave me a scrip for another antibiotic that is a ten day one. Something about Z-paks not working sometimes due to their brevity. Lovely waste of money, that was.

Anyway, I am tired and sick and I haven't written in 2 weeks because I just haven't felt well enough. well there was that one story. Anyway, I feel...

I dunno if there's a point to writing any more fanfic, actually. That's how I feel. I dunno. I'm writing some and..anyway, whatevs, I feel bad because my betas have been all over it and I feel like they wasted their time. I dunno if I have anything else to say.

Maybe I'm just sick and tired of being sick. And tired.

*hugs*

look after yourself first and fic may (or may not) come but you need to get well first

*hugs*

I have a lot ready to post, but later parts are not done!

[valancy-joy.livejournal.com]

awwww.... sorry to hear you haven't been feeling well. Hang in there and take care of yourself.

HUGS

Thanks, bb.

Yeah, Z packs never work for us. Feel better!

[dremiel.livejournal.com]

Adorable explanation of the appeal of Doctor Who may cheer you up...

OMG HE'S SO CUTE.

ick sore throats are the worst - FEEL BETTER SOON (allcaps means it's a command, so you have to obey!)

i know what you mean about the fic - i don't feel like i'm contributing anything new or exciting, so what's the point? maybe you just need a break, work on some original stuff for a while (though your fanfic will be SORELY missed <-- see what i did there?)

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I dunno. I have a lot ready to post but later stuff isn't done, and everyone's all "omg tw with Ianto nooooo" and I don't have Ianto, and it doesn't seem to matter how awesome something is, people don't try it because their token bi guy isn't in it.

Hopefully you're just sick of being sick, as it would be a shame not to see more of your fic. Rest up and feel better soon, regardless.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

Thanks, man.

[bleukittie.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry you are sick. Is the kidlet sick too?

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

Kidlet is not sick (knock on wood)!

[contrarywise]

Oh god Z-Pak. The wrong antibiotic for everything, apparently, but docs prescribe it a lot for some bizarre reason.

I hope the new drugs righteously kick the ass of whatever evil has set up shop in your throat and neck. Maybe your urge to fic will recover along with your bod.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

I've never had problems with Z-Pak's before, but I guess there's a first time for everything.

Bah, fucking disease.

[tziporahrachel.livejournal.com]

I haven't met anybody who doesn't feel that Z-paks are a waste of time and money. Whenever I get a sinus infection(which is every friggin spring) my doctor says, "I'm going to prescribe you a Z-pak" And I respond with, "You can do that but I'm not going to take it".

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

Haahahah the thing is this is the first time a z-pak hasn't got the job done for me. when he proscribed it I was happy because it just meant 5 days of antibiotics. Z-paks have always worked for me.

[used_songs]

I hope you feel better soon. Infections suck because they make you feel crappy all over. Hopefully the doctor busted out the good drugs this time.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

Yeah, this was my real doctor, so he did the clarithromycin. If it doesn't work, at least I won't get anthrax!

[madder-rose.livejournal.com]

Sickiness sucks. Hope the new antibiotics work snappish, and you feel better soon :)

(and fic to follow)

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

God I hope so too. I have lost 2 weeks of my life, here. Bah.

[wildeagain.livejournal.com]

Maybe I'm just sick and tired of being sick. And tired.

My money is on this. :(

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

Yeah. and on that note. Nap time.

[misswinterhill.livejournal.com]

I would get you a goddamn pop tart, but sadly I live in Australia and pop tarts can't swim.

::hugs you:: Feel better soon. I would always encourage you to write fic, but your original stuff is fucking fantastic too. It's never a waste of time betaing you (not that I did, but I don't think it's a waste of time.)

Uh. Maybe I should wake up before I try to reply to internets.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

HAH, thanks. Yeah. I guess I should just...I dunno.

[lefaym.livejournal.com]

Hoping you feel better soon.

I'm a big believer in not forcing yourself to write when you really don't want to, but having said that I hope that when you're feeling better, you WILL feel like writing again, because I love your fic and I'd hate not to see more of it. :) But, there shouldn't be any obligation there.

*hugs*

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

Like I told Spider, all I want to do IS write, but sitting at the computer to do it is exhausting.

Bleaugh. SADFACE.

[spiderine.livejournal.com]

Take care of yourself, kiddo! Just relax. You don't have to write a damn thing if you don't want to or don't feel up to it. Your health is more important.

*hugs from afar with added disinfectant*

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

Oh no see, all I want to do IS write, but I'm so tired when I sit down at the computer nothing gets done. I sleep all the time, and I'm pissed about that. Feels like I wasted 2 weeks sleeping.

[blue-fjords.livejournal.com]

I fully believe you are sick and tired of feeling sick and tired.

Your fic is awesome. I just wish someone would film it, b/c the mental image of Dee in Versace is ... yowza.

One more thing: I love you.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

I think we need Dee in Versace too. And Gwen in that cigarette girl outfit.

[amonitrate.livejournal.com]

aw man. hugs. the stupid z-pack or whatever did the same thing for me last time they gave it to me, and yeah, had to go on the longer course. I don't know why they even bother.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Stupid antibiotics.

[bugeyedmonster.livejournal.com]

You're just sick. And tired because you are sick. So don't worry about the fic, just worry about getting well. Get some rest and take your meds and drink plenty of fluids.

Sending hugs.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

Haahahah I LOVE FLUIDS!

Seriously. I need to drink so much water for this benefiber.

[taffimai.livejournal.com]

Feel better!

(Wow, original. Sorry. It's late.)

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

Bah, it's all good. Thanks!

[sivatheminty.livejournal.com]

awwww, hope you feel better soon!

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Meeeeee tooooooo!

[elistaire.livejournal.com]

Don't give up!

Not being entirely well at the moment myself, I *know* this feeling. You don't have to do anything now or ever, but just don't close it off, just say "I'll write if I feel like it" and go about getting healthy and living life as you need to.

*hugs*

I hope you feel better soon.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

Yeah man. Sleep is awesome!
