Someone Like Me
I should really be going to sleep, but I have to do laundry in order to dress accordingly for tomorrow morning’s service project. So while I’m waiting, here’s another post for you guys.
Thursday… let’s see. I woke up relatively late. Called Sophia C to find out when she would be dropping off her project CD. Got a really random call from Chi Hai about a favor her law firm needed me to do.
Bummed around online for a while, of course, as I was waiting for Sophia C to drop off her stuff. After that, went over to Kitty’s because I was bored and hot. Fished her hard drive out of her computer. I dunno if she really wants me to fix the old one anymore, now that she’s got her shiny new PowerBook. I’ll still do what I can. Most important to her is just getting her pictures off it.
Had another hive attack start while I was at her place. She gave her her supply of rubbing alcohol, but that didn’t work very well. I ran home and took an ice cold shower, but that didn’t work, either. Well, it numbed it for a while, but when I got out, it was itchy and fiery. Finally bit the bullet and called Kaiser to try to get some professional help. Unfortunately, there was no doctor available until the next morning, so I could only talk to the advice nurse, who told me to take Benedryl and call again in the morning.
Drove out to Long’s as fast I could and got some Benedryl tablets. Took two, went home, and passed out. Was supposed to go eat with Drew, Andy, and Krista at Jusco and discuss Eta Psi, but that didn’t happen. Woke up a couple of hours later, and hopped online again.
Worked on Sophia C’s project and sent her a sample. Quote comes from when she was giving me feedback.
“In Sac?”
- Sophia C.
“No, actually. I had another hive attack, so I stayed.”
- Me.
“Geez, I’m SO not the girl Dinh. You’re worse than me.”
- Sophia C.
“… where did that come from?”
- Me.
“Eddie called me the girl Dinh for my excessive allergies, asthma and reading and liking puzzles and stuff.”
- Sophia C.
Wow. It’s true. You’re like the twin sister I never had. 
Anyways, passed out really early that night. I blame the Benedryl. But whatever the reason, it was sweet to be able to sleep in peace.
