Dirty Lungs

I had to go to the doctor today…not mine, though, because he wasn’t in. I couldn’t sleep much at all last night because I was coughing so much. Well, the doctor I went to asked me quite a few times if I smoked or was around a lot of smoke. I almost wanted to scream at him that I was deathly allergic to smoke, but I didn’t figure that would do any good. He almost prescribed Cipro for me, but my mom told him my doctor usually gives me Biaxin. I can’t take Ceclor, Septra, Zithromax, or Penicillin because I’m allergic to them.

There is one good thing about no being able to sleep. I got to watch more of season 3 of Grey’s Anatomy. I’m up to the middle of the season, where they have the mass casualty thing. I don’t want to give it away because I know some people haven’t seen it. It’s gotten pretty good. The first half of the season was kind of blah. I saw the latest episode of season 4 last night, so I know something happens between now and then between Derek and Meredith, so I’m not happy about that, but I’m looking forward to seeing what happens next.

Since today is Black Friday, I thought I’d bring up the All Year Wishes Meme again:

Based on the Holiday Wishes meme from LJ

STEP ONE
- Make a post (public, friends-locked, filtered…whatever you’re comfortable with) to your LJ or a post on your blog. The post should contain your list of 20 wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fandom-related (”I’d love a Snape/Hermione icon that’s just for me”) to medium (”I wish for _____ on DVD”) to really big (”All I want for Christmas is a new car/computer/house/TV.”) The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.

- If you wish for real life things (not fics or icons), make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it’s your address or just your email address where Santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you. [Note: Your home address is not required!]

STEP TWO
- Surf around your friends-list/links list (or friends’ friends, or just random journals) to see who has posted their list. And now here’s the important part:

- If you see a wish you can grant, and it’s in your heart to do so, make someone’s wish come true. Sometimes someone’s trash is another’s treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don’t want or a gift certificate you won’t use–or even know where you could get someone’s dream purebred Basset Hound for free–do it.

You needn’t spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn’t to put people out, it’s to provide everyone a chance to be someone else’s holiday elf–to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not–it’s your call. There are no guarantees with this project, and no strings attached. Just…wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you’ll have the joy of knowing you made someone’s holiday special.

My wishlist for the meme is at: allyearwishes on LJ

If you want to participate, just post the rules to this meme on your blog/LJ and post in this entry to let me know that you’re participating.

Well, I’m off to take my Biaxin and Quindal (yuck). Maybe it’ll slow down this coughing thing.
