my lovei'm totally obsessed with this baby. she actually makes me want a baby, and i really don't see myself having le child.
a week of baby was total bliss, but now im paranoid i maybe got her sick i'm waiting for labs to come back to see if i have mono. i have been sick for two weeks been on multiple meds and keep getting more sick of different kinds of sick.
i've had a bedtime of 8 or 9 for two plus weeks, this is pathetic. walking up a flight of stairs could send me into cardiac arrest... i mean not really i'm just that sluggish.
anyway, this is my baby love and me wanting to smush her because she's so completely presh.

Cute. Did you know that almost 95% of people have had mono before. Apparently most of us get it when we are under the age of two, so the symptoms come across as just a cold.

a Jho.Saw this license plate yesterday when I was driving home from a lovely lunch with my bro and niece.
We were stopped at a light and my brother says, "a Jho." I was thinking um yea, you are a j. Ho. His first name is Josh.
Then I look at the car in front of me.... So hilar! I want that license plate!!!!

so awesome... rocks my world!

I am jealous. I need to clean out my flat and have no time or inclination... but I really would like to have shiny floors and all the papers I have strewn about vanish by snapping my fingers or something.

I'm guessing they move the upholstery attachment in alternating directions when vacuuming. The people I work for have a microfiber sofa and their kids spend hours drawing shapes into the fabric with their fingers. It's like furniture meets etch-a-sketch!

What a neat idea! Makes me wish I had something in microfiber.

I think it never really goes away. EBV, CMV and some other members of the herpes virus family just linger on waiting to strike when you are at your most vulnerable.
my friend Yosepha said she had it for like 10 years she would claim it as an excuse whenver she was tired
I've had it twice. The first time it was basically a bad sore throat and fever that went away after a week. The second time I couldn't eat for nearly 10 days and slept for the entire summer of 1997. Go for it if you feel ok.
As long as you don't have sex, drink, or stay up too late I wouldn't see any medical reason why still couldn't have mono and still go to vegas.
bed rest?! I have been sleeping about 12 hrs a night, and stayed home for a week from work. i think i'm out of the bed rest stage. i'll take it easy for a few more weeks. i'm done telling people i have it, they think they will get sick too, but most people my age have already been exposed to it.
I gave (e:mike) mono but it is a cute plush toy not the real thing. Sorry, hope you get better fast so you can go to Vegas.
Get well soon.
It's self containing and there is no particular cure because it's a virus (the Epstein Barr Virus). I would say complete bed rest, plenty of hydration, excellent nutrition with lots of vitamin C, iron and plant-based proteins should quell it in 2-3 weeks. But recovery completely depends on what your immune status has been in the recent past. Considering, you have been posting a ton of sick reports lately, I suspect your immune system is not up to snuff. Could be wise to reconsider that vegas trip and any undue exertion if you want to get rid of it completely.
