I'm feeling much better toady than yesterday. I've only shot into the bathroom once, thank god. No such luck for Rita. She has spent most of her day in the bathroom. I tried to talk to her a few hours ago, but it wasn't very long since she ran into the bathroom and thew up. That made me do the same, and that has been the only time I've been sick. I went to the doctor and for the most part, I;m better and noncontagious. Thank GOD! The doctor said I should be totally healthy in a few days. Rita is sicker than I thought was remotely possible. She said she'd rather be dead than be this sick, and I said, 'Oh, no you don't. Then I'd have noone to knock my klutzy butt back into place.". That's when we both leaned in for a kiss and she ran to the bathroom. That sucked. I was sorta bummed. She came back all green and dizzy. I decided to not try to kiss her until her face was it's normal color again.
