it not rain (mostly) every day…
so I was talking to my mother (yes, FINALLY… after ten days of us Not Speaking to Each Other) and was pleased to hear a few things of use to me personally. she reiterated her personal credo of “god and your mother will always love you.” and while I haven’t been quite sure of god, I did have to agree this time. after staying up all night with a horrible uti, I made all kinds of promises (pleasepleaseplease let the THIRD fucking store I go to have pyridium… pleasepleaseplease don’t let me wet myself on the drive back home… HELLO, one full litre of water…) I may have to believe just a little bit.
I haven’t had a uti in four and one half years, and I SWEAR to you it never felt this horrible before. never. only birth has been more painful, and in that case you get a prize at the end (painkillers, heh). my mother’s take is that I have a full-blown kidney infection, and that sounds about right. I’ve actually been feeling truly rotten for over a week now… tired, down, achey, and a general ick feeling in my abdomen, accompanying a general nausea. I thought maybe flu, but it never manifested. so I guess it’s off to the walk-in for me tomorrow. woooooo. eww.
last night I was so in pain that I was making those animal noises I’ve heard myself make during transition (birth stage). thank maude for pyridium and orange pee.
I’m hoping for sleep tonight. some. any. I tried to take a nap tonight but was interupted. I feel like the walking dead. I did, however, get my errands run today, and that was good.
I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue…
*DISCLAIMER* I didn’t “do” anything to “deserve” this uti, if you kwim (know what I mean).

Sorry you have a UTI. I dont believe I have ever had one.
LMAO @ disclaimer.
Ugh, I had them CONSTANTLY while with the ex..I had a standing prescription for a high end antibiotic, had a bladder-scope (yes, that’s the technical term, shaddup) my kidneys xrayed…everything. Had it move into my kidneys once…it wasn’t pretty. Oh those crazy college days…
Well fuck (if you kwim) that is really really sad that you didn’t do anything to deserve it. I mean, at least then it’d be similar to birth in that there’d have been some sort of prize at some point, right? Anyhow, I too hope you get some sleep tonight, get taken care of all proper-like at the doc tomorrow and feel better hon.
Remember to amend that… God, your mother and Timothy will always love you no matter what. And also? I’ll prolly still love you after God’s given up.
Timothy
PS – I think I’m having sympathy symptoms of some sort… Not. Feeling. Human.
ouch ouch ouch
I’m wishing you vicodin. lots and lots of it. If you don’t want it, you can send it to me.
OUCH!!!! No one deserves a uti, that just sucks!
lots of love and cranberry juice!!!
I hope your weewee feels better soon!
worst uti ever? going through the desert in egypt in 4×4′s for five days. random bathroom stops if there was in fact a bathroom, and even then we were lucky if we got a toilet. ow. ow. ow.
liar, you did too do something to deserve it – didn’t your mother also tell you to stop trying to lick yourself clean? that’s what the bidet is for, freakshow.
feel better. my last uti is still plenty fresh in my memory, and i feel your pain. so much so that i think i just tinkled.
It’s good to be a guy… HAHAHAAAA no utis… now that I am done rubbing that in your face…. I hope you feel better very soon…. And for God sakes try to deserve it next time…
Stop letting Klawonj rub things in your face, or a UTI will be the least of your worries…
Aw, thats OK, I’ve got some candy for you. Magic candy that makes everything better…and makes you see and hear things that arent there…and makes you realy realy horney.
Well, on the bright side, since you didn’t do anything to warrant the uti you won’t have to clean up after it later.
I hope you feel better soon. I’ve never had a uti, knock on wood. Too bad it’s not like a throat infection where you could just gargle with salt water. I wouldn’t recommend that though in this instance.
Oh oh oh…Sweeeeetie. I am SO sorry. UTIs are the WORST. Cheers to orange pee. Feel bettah soon, dollface!
Never had a UTI and your description makes me grateful for that! Love you, sorry you’re hurting.
yeah, and I didn’t “DO” anything to have my third baby.
The worst UTI’s are the fucking undeserved ones…that just sucks ass!
((((((((((HUGS!))))))))))

Sometimes I kwim, but thankfully I never kwif. I never get utis, either, but I’m sorry to hear about yours. You could definitely use a break, woman. Take care and big *hugs*.
ouch. I hate UTIs, deserved or undeserved, IYKWIM.
I hope you feel better, my dearest. HDL is right — cranberry juice, and once you get to feeling better, cranberry juice WITH VODKA.
I’ve actually got one now, although not as bad. I’ve been hopped up on cranberry pills and water, hoping to will it away. What is pyridium – is it homeopathic or something, and can I get it at a regular drugstore? Or health food store?
I know exactly where mine came from – my man and I went away for anniversary last month – and there was a jacuzzi in our room. (damn Mr. Bubbles)
i wasn’t sure what “uti” was, so i googled it…sorry your ‘universal technical institute’ is hurting you so badly :/ i hope you don’t matriculate all over the place!
bahahaha, wintermute.
hope you’re feeling better, hon !!!
