At this moment, I am enjoying my hot White Chocolate Mocha at Starbucks Medical City. I am in no rush and this gives me great pleasure.
If you know me, I am always in a rush (except during meal time). I eat very slowly, but I hurry everything else. I purposely extend my bath during my days off. Once, I timed myself in the shower, and was disappointed to find that it only took me ten minutes to shampoo, soap and scrub. On a regular workday, it would probably take me just five minutes or even less to shower. I don’t have a tub, so I can’t really do much in the bathroom.
I should be at work right now but the nurse from the company clinic scared the shit out of me. From work, I got into a cab at 10PM and brought myself to the Medical City for a consult. If you must know, I was stung by a sea urchin on my hands and feet yesterday. I still smell of vinegar because I soaked my feet on a basin of Datu Puti as an alternative to ammonia. Denver absolutely hates vinegar but what can I do? It’s better than pee, right? So far, there seems to be no sign of infection, and the pain is still bearable. Bad news is that I still have to marinate my hands and feet in vinegar two to three times a day.
Oh, special thanks to the nurse. Because of her, I am sipping my coffee instead of staring blankly at my monitor at work.
No DVD for me tonight. I am beat from the bus ride all the way from Bataan. I could stay up but I prefer to sleep heavenly or just lay down and imagine myself around 50 pounds lighter. I hope the pain is gone by next week. I need to hit the gym soon. I don’t think I can wear rubber shoes just yet.
