When I was home for Christmas, I wasn't feeling the best. I was all congested and had a cough I couldn't get rid of. While I was there, my father started getting the same symptoms. I had bought some Dayquil and Nyquil on my way home, and my dad started taking both.
I'm feeling pretty good now, but still have a cough I can't seem to overcome. I can't take a deep breath without breaking into a cough. But overall not bad.
However, my dad has worsened. He decided to go to the doctor today. After doing some tests, the doctor said my dad's oxygen level was low and sent him to the hospital. My dad ended up being admitted to the hospital. They're not entirely sure what he has...one test indicates he has pnumonia, and another indicates he has congestive heart failure (which sounds a lot worse than I think it is).
Regardless, he's going to be in the hospital for a day or couple of days. Hopefully everything turns out well.

Sick & tired
"You know what I'm sick and tired of Harry? I'm sick and tired of having to eke my way through life. I'm sick and tired of being a nobody...But most of all, I'm sick and tired of having nobody."
Who knew Dumb & Dumber would be the source of this great quote. Kind of sums up my life at the moment.

slowly peeling away the layers...
Where was the very first kiss you had with the last person you kissed?
In my car as I was dropping her off at her house.
Are you listening to music right now?
Are you currently wanting any piercings or tattoos?
Yes. I want another tattoo, but I'm not entirely sure what I want
Do you curse in front of your parents?
I try not to, but occasionally something slips out.
Concert tickets or NFL game tickets?
Have you hugged someone within the last week?
Are you addicted to cigarettes?No. I'll have one from time to time when I'm at the bar, but very seldom
Do you tell your parents everything?
Not as much as I used to, but still share quite a bit with them.
Do you have any tattoos?
Yes, one on my left bicep
Will your next kiss be a mistake?Hopefully not
If something was wrong, who is the first girl you would go to? I'd likely just keep it to myself
Do you think there’s a difference between the word ‘best friend’ and ‘friend?
Sort of. I have very few 'friends' and my definition of 'friend' is what most people would call their 'best friend.' That being said, I do have one or two friends who I'm closest to, so I guess they would be my best friends.
When is the next time you will kiss someone?
Have you ever been engaged?
Not yet.
What's your mood?
Have you ever been out of state?
A few times.
Have you ever looked at the stars with someone?
Yes...it was an interesting moment.
Have you ever cried yourself to sleep?
Yes, probably several times. One that I distinctly recall was the night of HS graduation. My father's death suddenly hit home for me that night and I had a rough time. I'm sure there have been times since then, but that is one night that will always be in my memory.
Do you have a good relationship with your mother?
I think I have a fairly good relationship with my mother. Sometime during my teenage years, I decided that I was going to be honest with my mother about anything I had done. My rationale was that whatever I had done was in the past and that she could punish me for making a bad decision, but that wouldn't change the decision I had made. From that point on, I've been really honest with her about everything and I think we have a great relationship because of that.
Does anyone hate you?
No idea. Kind of hope not, but if they do, that's their decision.
Honestly, how is your heart lately?
Up and down.
Single? or in a Relationship?
depends on the relationship
Is there someone who continuously lets you down?
Kinda of. At times she makes me feel like Charlie Brown (she'd be Lucy) attempting to kick the football, only to have it pulled away at the last second.
Is there someone you'd really like to hang out with and just talk about stuff?I'd like to have someone who I felt comfortable just talking to. There have been very few people like that in my life, and sadly, I'm only still friends with one or two. And those one or two have moved on with their lives, so no one really for me to talk to.

Yes, not a good quality hug, but a 'i'm leaving the bar' type hug.

Boredom sets in...
How many things in your past do you regret?
None. I don't believe in regrets. I'm who I am and where I am today because of all of the decisions I've made in the past. I wouldn't change any of them. So no regrets for me.
Do you fall for people easily?
I don't think that I do.
Did you have a good day today?
Wasn't bad. Took a sick day and caught up on some sleep.
What pissed you off yesterday?
Do you ignore people when you're mad/upset?
Yes. I am a very private person. I'd bet the person I'm mad at usually doesn't even know it.
Does anything hurt on your body?
What is the best way to get over someone?
Is there a best way?
Do you have secrets that if you tell, people would be shocked?Possibly. But they'd be shocked only because few people really know me.
How many cellphones have you had?
Half dozen or so.
Your phone is ringing. It's your ex. What do you say?
Are you tanned?
No. It's the middle of winter.
If you HAD to get a piercing (not ears) what would you get?
Already had my tongue pierced twice, so probably do that again.
Can you commit to one person?
Is life good?
Have you ever walked on the beach at night?
Yes, a few years ago with someone I then began dating.
Is there someone you can trust 100%?
I don't know. I wish there was, but I don't know that there is anyone who I feel I can be completely open and honest with. No one who I can really call up when I'm having a shitty day and just talk.
What color are your eyes?
What's the most recent thing you spent money on?
Christmas card
What are you doing tomorrow?
Going to work
What makes you mad?
It takes a lot to get me mad, or even annoyed. I tend to go with the flow and not let things bother me. People often misinterpret this, but I think I'm a happier person for it.
Has anyone told you they don't ever wanna lose you?Possibly, I don't remember. The likely candidates for saying this have since 'lost' me, so lot of good it did them.
If you could go back in time and change something, would you?No. Because the trickle down effect would mean that I'm not who I am today or where I'm at today.
Do you care what people think about you?
Depends who it is
Would you change yourself for the person you love?Small changes, sure. But I am who I am.
Is there someone you wish you were with right now?
None. I don't believe in regrets. I'm who I am and where I am today because of all of the decisions I've made in the past. I wouldn't change any of them. So no regrets for me.

I don't think that I do.

Nope… not today
