The whole way to the doctors' office I was ready to pass out. Literally, I tried reading a book but it was only making me nauseous. So I'm alone, sick, body feeling like an orange after it's been juiced and I get off the train and lucky me, there's a bus. I jump on and at some point realized.... I'm on the wrong bus. Geez
Finally get to the docs office and I'm ready to fall out on the table and take a nap. Just 5 minutes please mom.... An hour later I see the doc who in two minutes writes a prescription for antibiotics. "I love you" I want to say but "thank you" is all that comes out, until he tells me, "do you ever notice that your heart doesn't beat properly"..... ummm no, only when I'm sick do I notice it's irregular, but not really.
So it appears I have heart palpitations... or murmurs something that warrants me to come back for an ultrasound. "We need to have this looked at, it could be Meso----" (I dunno, some doctor speak). Grrrrreat.
Relaying the convo to my friend Lupe and she tells me "Did you tell the doc about your migraines?" No I reply, knowing full well that's info that would be useful but hey "it's on my chart". We all know I'm falling apart.
So I get in a cab to my mothers house cause she wants to go to Macy's and get a toaster oven for my apt. Since I got there before her, I figure, let me take a nap. A couple hours later, she wakes me up to take me home... MAN, I know I have my own apt but sleeping at her house was the best sleep I've gotten in days.
It felt so good to be home.

You make me wanna go home too. Ive been all over the world, but nothing is as comfortable as the place you share with your family, wherever that is. I am just as comfortable in the house i grew up in as i am in the house my family currently stays in as well as my own house.
My sister just got her own apartment and im sure i'll be very comfortable there as well.
By the way, hows your new apartment?!
