Scary Experience
Thursday March 3, 2005
Faol was in a depressed, funky mood this morning when he called. I wasn’t really able to cheer him up beyond just the contact of someone who loves him. Afterwards Tom and I went back to bed for a while. When we were up again I spent time reading Julia Cameron's Walking in this World, followed by the book, When Friendship Hurts by Jan Yager. We got a walk in the early afternoon, which was nice.
My throat has been bothering me for two days with clear irritation and a swollen tonsil tag end (don’t have the whole tonsil anymore) but after a vitamin got stuck in my throat today it has been something like swallowing glass or so I imagine it to be. It was really weird. I could breath and continue to drink and swallow but it wouldn’t go down and finally I vomited. But it didn’t come up so I ended up leaning over the sink continuing to vomit. I finally put my fingers down my throat in the hope that I could dislodge it and I continued to vomit when the pill suddenly popped out. What a relief! Since then I have barely been able to swallow or to talk.
I was able to make Tom cookies though since I didn’t have to talk or
swallow to do it. He had a great day, I think, sex in the morning followed
by cookies in the evening. I had a good morning anyway.
