I woke up early this morning chilling like I've never experienced before. It's as if the comforter can't do anything much to quell the chills. My temperature fluctuated from 37.5 degrees centigrade to 39 degrees. I was curled in bed until about 7AM and then decided to go back to the hospital after eating breakfast. I had some hot soup and oranges and lots of water. I was expecting that I would be advised to stay in the hospital but good thing I wasn't. My temperature became stable a little above normal so I was told that I could go home before lunchtime. I was relieved because aside from I am feeling a little better, I can stay in the comforts of my own bed and my pillows. There's nothing like staying in your own room after all. Although I didn't have any appetite for food, I forced myself to have some so I can take some medicines that were prescribed by the doctor. When I woke up around 5PM, I was coughing really hard and got scared when I saw a little blood in it. I called my mom but she wasn't able to pick up her phone, she's probably in church. I called my sister and she said it's normal with the way I cough. She told me to cough it out from my lungs and not from my larynx. Okay, will believe the little nurse...

Olive sent me a text telling me that she's planning a little get-together with the girls while I am home on vacation. I told her yes I would attend as I miss the girls so much already. I saw some of them last April and invited them for dinner. Sohnea, Nonie, Lynore, and Amayah was there and Ian attended too. I haven't seen Jade for so long already but we talk over messenger or SMS sometimes. Sohnea, Olive and Lynore works for a bank. Jade works for the Bureue of Internal Revenue. Amayah is now a preschool teacher at Tumble Tots. Nonie works for the city water district and is now happily married to Omar. Darice just passed the CPA Board Exams and is scouting for the best auditing firm she can get her hands wet with. Our friendship started in our early college years and we have for the most part always made it a point to meet even once a year over dinner or lunch or some night out.

While watching the early morning local news today, I heard that a bomb exploded in front of a drugstore in my hometown. I immediately called mom to check if everybody was alright. I was glad she answered and said all the family members are safe. She said she and our pastor's wife just left that drugstore to buy some diapers and other baby stuff before the bomb exploded. I am happy they weren't there anymore but my heart goes out to those who were injured. I am not sure if anyone died. As per Uncle Don, we are in perilous times. Indeed, we are.

Babe, I hope your internet connection comes back soon. I miss you. I miss talking to you and waking up to your nudges and kisses. Yes, I agree leaving our cam on when we went to bed last time was so sweet especially when I woke up and you were watching me sleep. Can't wait to play the online game with you by the way.
I will go to work tonight Babe. If you get back online you know where to reach me. I love you so much and yes I could not wait until our 3 months turns into 30 years too.
