I'd like to keep this brief. Right now I have a urinary tract infection. I'm sure I don't have to write anything more on this topic to convey the pain, frustration and hate for the toilet that I'm experiencing.
This morning I had a fundraising training to coordinate downtown. I woke up feeling completely dissatisfied with my night of sleep. Thursday night I fell asleep at 9:30pm and woke up at 9:30am and felt fantastic, but yesterday I was yawning through the end stretch of our evening with John's mom & dad. By midnight, I was in shock that I was still standing- I thought "man, I'm going to get some great sleep." No, not the case. Every single hour I was waking up, not out of pain or need to pee- just waking up as if I was disturbed by some light sounds. When I woke up, I got ready, popped a vitamin and headed over with John to his apartment to get the bagged lunches stowed in his fridge. I was feeling hungry and knew I should eat something, so I started to pour myself a bowl of honey bunches of oats when a bubble of vomit shot up my throat out of nowhere, and I had the clear thought: I'm going to throw up- DAMNIT! So I quickly abandoned the cereal approach and popped some saltines (advice from momma) and felt a little bit better.
The feeling eventually subsided and I was able to operate normally through the rest of my morning until I came home and developed this UTI.
So there, I've had my complaining session. Now let me talk about happier things. Last night I met John's parents and I really like them! John hasn't done a great job of describing them to me, so I was really anxious to encounter their personalities. I always love meeting parents and siblings of people I know to see all of the personality and physical connections, but this is even better because I get to see a wider scope of how John came to be and how our baby may be influenced.
Debbie and Dave seem to really compliment each other as a couple in a similar way that I think John and I match and it makes me smile. I'm glad that they will be my child's grandparents and I can't wait for the day that we can all converge as a big family. I know my mom and Debbie would get along and it seems like Dave would get along with everyone just like my dad, as long as they aren't a Yankees fan.
So right now, I've went ahead and believed the internet advice and taken Azo to help relieve the UTI pain and I'm going to get back to work. I keep thinking about that near V8 vomit incident this morning and I'm very concerned I'll be riding on a bus in Morocco throwing up into my sweater (mom :) ).
