My goodness me - I feel exhausted.
Before I went out tonight to you know where (and if you don't, then check my FB wall ;-)), I went on a mad, mammoth cleaning mission.
My bathroom is so spotless, it makes me grin.
I didn't even get around to finishing up my room - another mammoth task that is gonna have to wait for another day.
I got in a little while ago and even though I was feeling knackered, I had to study before my class tomorrow. I have so much catching up to do because I haven't studied since the quake struck a couple of weeks ago. It wasn't as difficult as I thought, though, to pick up exactly where I left off. I just need to get back into the whole studying mentality.
So much that I need to do - I could use a whole week off work just to get everything on my to do list done. Unfortunately, given all the time off that I've had, next month's pay check is gonna be a real stinker so I can't afford to take any more time off this month - even though I so desperately need to.
Am I gonna talk about what happened tonight?
No!

On The Mend!!
LOL - my girl is such a joker.
You know how she knows I'm on the mend?
Because I'm really ******* *****!!!!!
LMAO!!
And naturally of course I want what I can't have....or maybe I can have it but it's too much effort to get it...actually no, I don't even think it's too much effort - it just involves a lot of game playing or a "yes" when the real answer is a "no" or some other crap like that. I just can't be arsed to deal with it, that's all.
So many people are out of town - hurry up and come back!!!

Diagnosis Please!
What a month this is turning out to be!
I ended up going ot hospital last night. It got to 6pm and I was STILL throwing up...or trying to - I couldn't eat or drink anything, so I was just bringing up bile - and I know you all know how painful that is!! I gave up - there was no way in hell I could ride out that pain, so I went to the hopsital. When I got there, the first thing they did was test me for radiation poisioning.
The level of radiation in my blood is WAAAAYYYYYY under the average - even though I had drunk 2 litres of tap water yesterday. Good to know I guess.
Not pregnant, no IBS and the fact that I wasn't running a temperature ruled out any kind of viral disease. My friend seems to think I have a norovirus - even if it's that, there is no treatment. Just IV and ride it out for a couple of days.
They put me on a drip for a couple of hours with 2 different kinds of fluids. I did feel a little better when I left - just still really uncomfortable. I haven't thrown up since but judging from the noises that are coming from my stomach, it's still really angry and I'm worried about problems starting from the other end! Apologies for the imagery!! Luckily, that hasn't happened...yet!
Still managing to keep my breakfast down, so that can only be a good sign. It's just the constant pain from the stomach cramps and this horrible uncomfortable feeling that has kept me away from work today. I just don't think I can sit through a lesson constantly worrying if I'm going to have to leg it to the bathroom. Just gonna ride this out at home and hope for the best.
A Tokyo update for you all:
You've probably already heard the news about contaminated water, food and milk. People are panic buying bottled water like crazy and now the shelves are empty. Radiation levels in the water supply are elevated but they are no way near dangerous. I probably wouldn't have believe that myself either but after going to the hospital yesterday and seeing that my levels were below average, EVEN THOUGH I had drunk 2 litres of tap water, has defintely put my mind at rest a little. Still not taking any chances though - I've filled up loads of bottles of water so that at least if the radiation levels do rise, I can drink safer water.
There were 4 really crazy aftershocks in quick succession yesterday morning and another big one this morning. Dunno what it is about the mornings, btu the biggest quakes always seem to hit then. I wonder when they are going to stop - more than anything, they are just becoming really annoying!
Please keep checking the news for regular updates.
I'm fine - I may be sick but I'll get through it. The timing just sucks, that's all.

=(
I am soooo disappointed.
I was really looking forward to hitting up the gym this morning, but I woke up at like 7am and had to leg it to the toilet to throw up.....and have been throwing up ever since. It's now gone 11.30!
I feel absolutely terrible - I haven't been violently ill like this for a while. I'm trying to put my finger on what caused in and everything seems to point to the udon that I had last night.....it's the last thing I ate before I went to bed.
Had to cancel my Japanese lesson as well - because of the short notice I won't be able to reschedule that one either. Nearly 7000yen down the drain. Can't do anything about it though - I really can't be too far away from a toilet right now!! Lovely.....
Hoping that it's gonna get better soon otherwise I'm gonna have to cancel my shift at work and I really need the money!! I'm just not sure how things are gonna play out because I really don't wanna be cancelling on people at the very last minute, so it might be better to cancel sooner rather than later....
=(
I feel so shit.

F*************************K!!!!
AAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
I can't even write about what happened because it's a secret.
How annoyed am I at myself?!?!?!
SERIOUSLY - when the hell am I ever gonna learn?!
They always say a leopard never changes its spots. I really need to accept that that REALLY IS THE TRUTH.
The even crappier thing about this awful realization is....
....it's not just his spots that never change....
....mine don't seem to either!!! ;-)

FFS!!!
Man, it feels like I haven't written for ages and I don't know where to start!
Firstly, I'm back in Tokyo. Apart from 2 small aftershocks and still a few empty shelves in the supermarket, it seems like things have been getting back to normal. I started back at work yesterday - to be honest it feels like I've done it a little too soon. Every conversation that I have with a client mentions SOMETHING about the earthquake and I just find myself not listening and thinking about my friends up north. I've been spending time with friends in the evening but it's crappy - I HATE having to admit that I do need emotional support. I don't care that I'm always offering it to other people - it's hard for me to accept it myself.
And I love my friends for giving it to me. =)
I'm just feeling seriously pissed off at myself for doing something fantabulous but utterly stupid. I don't have to spell it out - it's pretty obvious what I'm talking about. I just don't get what it is that keeps making me do it!!! Seriously. But sometimes the ease of something makes everything worthwhile. And that was definitely worthwhile. LOL!!
Now I just need to find someone more worthy and regular!!!!!

*Determination*
Another day in the inaka and I'm feeling....LAZY!!!!
I know that there's stuff I wanted to do in town, but it seems to be taken a long time for me to get my stuff together and head outta the house. I got up early again today and never went back to sleep. And then of course I was checking the news, catching up with friends and to be honest I just can't be arsed to move!
I have decided to bring nothing but positive vibes back to Tokyo with me. When I go back, it'll be weird because so many of my friends have left for a couple of weeks. I still don't feel it's necessary and will be trying to inject positivity in those people who have decided to stay behind and ride it out. I'll be there soon to join you guys!
Right, I'm off for a drive and to the shop to buy batteries and lights and stuff that has sold out in the stores in Tokyo. Hit me up if you need anything brought back for you!!
