I am currently living from inhaler puff to inhaler puff. Like, seriously, counting the minutes until I'm allowed to have one again so I don't go over my dosage. In between puffs, the only thing that seems to really be helping is booze. Right now, I'm sipping pisco. I don't know what I'm going to do when I get to work tomorrow and can only drink non-alcoholic things. At least there's only one day left.

I actually felt way better when I went to work this morning. Now I feel way worse. It's like my lungs are heavy and thick and full of fog. I'm watching for the crunchy lung sound that means bronchitis, but I don't have that yet, so whew. I'm hoping I'll get out to Colorado and this will magically clear up when I am in the land of different allergens.

I signed my lease renewal, which is really exciting for me because it's the first time since 2003 that I am not moving at least once in a year. I am going to live a whole year in the same place! Of course, just thinking that starts making me a little itchy to move. And you know when I didn't have asthma? WHEN I LIVED IN BOSTON. Not that I would want to move back there, but the lure of being able to breathe makes moving away seem very seductive. I wish I had a job where I could move around, because I don't think I'll ever be the kind of person who can stay in the same place for more than a few years. It just seems so unadventuresome.

But that's just anxiety from signing the lease, I think! I'm happy about the prospect of not packing up my shit for once.

In other news, LJ Idol requires three entries this week? I honestly am not sure I'm going to finish them, what with being so sick, but I'm surely going to try. I posted my first, which starts with a rendition of one of my favorite folktales in comic form. You can read it here.

I have more to say on that subject, but for now I need to sleep! <3 <3 everyone!
