I have a fever.

I hung out with Sister on the 23rd. We went to her dentist's appointment and came back to my place to watch a couple of movies.

Mom got my email. Apparently she cried. She told Sister that she wants to ignore this and go on like it never happened. Just like Christmas. I guess I was expecting more of a reaction.. an angry phone call or something. The email basically accused her of being immature and an abusive parent; I don't see how she can want to ignore something like that. Doesn't she want to talk to me about it at all? Isn't she curious about why I'd think the way I do about her? Doesn't it bother her enough to want to sit me down and explain to me why she is the way she is?

I went swimming with Zilla on the 24th. I went to get my membership, but it was $90 or so, so I didn't have the money to get it. I brought the papers hope for Pi, since he was the one offering to fund for it.

I went swimming with Zilla on the 25th, too. Before doing that, I went to two of the pharmacies in my area to see if either of them would need an extra worker. Neither of them did, but both places asked for a resume, even after saying that they didn't need me there. Pi got me out some money for my membership, plus a little extra for our visits to the coffee shop. I'll have to be careful about my money from now on because I've pretty much gone through all my savings.

I sent $60 to Nika to get me a Japanese textbook off ebay. Originally, I was going to buy one off of the high school system, but they didn't have enough to sell me one. I was going to get one from a bookstore, but the book itself is temporarilly unavailable.. meaning it might never be sold again. I found it on ebay, for cheaper, so that's how I'm going to get it. $60 was more than it was worth, but I gave her so much extra because my bank only gives out money by 20s, so I couldn't get out $50. This just means that Nika will owe me some change.

Yesterday I went for a walk with Golden and Pi in the morning. I was feeling pretty feverish, so that kinda sucked. After the walk, we got breakfast at Denny's. I was really thirsty, probably because of my fever. Sickness aside, I nearly managed to eat my whole plate. It's been a long time since I've been able to eat a full meal.

Golden invited me to come with her to a Ba'hai thing. I waited at home to go with her until about 6:30. I took some Dayquil, but that only lasted for four hours. I didn't want to take more, so I just toughed out the hours after the meds ran out. Che popped up online on Pi's MSN. I told her to come get her stuff in three days or it was going in to the trash. She said that she'd came five times to get her stuff. She must be going blind or something, because her stuff was in plain view for nearly a whole week outside. I talked to Pete for a little while. He's not doing so well lately.

I went to the Ba'hai thing. It wasn't bad. I got a headache from all the singing, though. The thing that stuck out to me the most was that they were talking about the whole one race, one religion thing. What is it with religions and that idea? I don't think that we'll ever really live that way; it's a nice idea, but not a very realistic one.

I felt really ill at the end of everything. Actually, mainly I just had a really bad headache. I didn't want to push Golden in to leaving, but I reminded her a few times that she had a kid spending the night at her house who hadn't eaten yet.

We dropped off Che's stuff on the way back to my place. I just figured that there wasn't a hope in hell that Che would ever find it on her own, so I might as well give it to her before I actually just got annoyed and hucked it out. It's out on her doorstep, so it's not my responsibility anymore. So long as no one comes by and steals the DVDs, I'm sure everything will be fine now.

I went to bed pretty much as soon as I got in. I apologized to Pete for not staying up.

I felt better this morning when I got up. Not completely better, but enough that I noticed a major difference. Pi went off fishing with a coworker almost as soon as he got home. He'll probably go to bed once he gets in, so I'm not going to get to see him very long today. Around the time he gets home, I'm going to call Androx and see if he wants to come over tomorrow. I think he needs to get out more often anyway.

At the moment, I'm cooking chicken. I'm pretty hungry, so I don't feel all that patient. It will still take a couple of hours, so I'll probably have some cereal while I'm waiting.
