I'm sick.

This thing I've had for months that stops me earing that I thought would go away when I got home and had familiar food? Worst it's been.

I phoned the out of hours medical service and they were like 'get to hospital as soon as possible'.

I'm not going. I'm too poor. I can't afford to get a taxi and if it were really that bad they'd send an ambulance, right?

I don't particularly want to live, but I'll be really annoyed if I die on this f*cking floor by myself. I've been alone too much, I don't want to be by myself at the end. I kind of want to hold someone's hand.

f*ck it. I'll be fine. I'm just sore and the nausea is getting to me. I didn't get my full 3 hours sleep last night, either. I mean...I need 10 to feel ok, but whatever, right?

Sorry. My head hurts and my back hurts and I need to puke. Or something. From somewhere.

Not if you don’t 999 it.

Pass the buck. Tell them the service said you need A&E but you’re too sick to get there. You know, because it’s true? If you were well being broke wouldn’t even slow you down. As you’re sick? You need help. People work that job. On purpose. Let them do theirs.

3 little numbers. 2 nuts & a spine. Sounds about right.

999. I need to get to A&E.


^^^ Cough ^^^ I ended up with armed police the last time I called for medical, but I have a brain infection, so god only knows what I was on about when I rang. Off my f*cking head, fevered, the whole nine. They were quick enough to get paramedics to sweet talk me, so there’s that. Out from under the vehicle I have zero recollection of sliding under. Brain infections. The fun never ends.

@Paladin_141 your bed gets delivered today dosent it?

 

[Paladin_141]

It does. I'm really looking forward to being able to curl up in an agonised ball on a mattress instead of the floor. I got a refund from something so I've ordered an electric heater that looks like the wood burning stove we always wanted.

Waste of money, but I couldn’t help myself.

@Paladin_141 how about get your bed sorted, get some sleep then phone for a ambulance, tell them how bad your feeling and you don't have the money to get to hospital. You really should get checked out.

 

[Survivor3]

Maybe you have to wait for your heater to be delivered though aswell. Forgot about that, @Paladin_141.

 

[Paladin_141]

I can wait for another half hour, then I have to get the bus to my 'are you still alive?' appointment at the loony bin. I can afford that, just not a taxi last night. Once I get to the city I can get more money from my savings.

14 hours in thw hospital and they don’t know what it is.

I came home this morning and finally unpacked my storage unit, to find that some of my most treasured possessions are absent and nobody seems to know what became of them.

Life is just a constant drip drip drip of miserable things with never the least hint of joy, isn't it?

I am, believe it or not, naturally a very mellow and cheerful person, but these last couple of years have crushed the last hints of that out of me. It's just constant.

I also found an invoice sent to my wife for various ingredients for making curses, some potentially intended to kill tbe target. I've sent a copy to both the police and the civil court. Whether the chosen method works in the end or not, attempting to kill someone is a crime.

That's f*cked up. have you got most of what you need for your flat now?

 

[Paladin_141]

Yeah, save the loss of a few irreplaceable momentos of past adventures and my TV, I'm basically sorted.

Need more bookshelves, though. I have a dozen more boxes of the bloody things.

@Paladin_141 looks like a home to me!! Well done. ️

 

[Paladin_141]

Getting there. Needs curtains.
