Last day of classes for the semester. Also the day of my last Algebra exam. Mmm... conic sections. Fun.
Except, you know, not.
My Algebra review is still not done. It's closer to done than it was, but I was focusing on the Chapter 9 stuff yesterday, to make sure I had it in my brain as much as I was going to before the test.
I just keep telling myself, five days and it'll all be over. It feels like forever.
My kidneys are acting up- not a lot, just enough to remind me that they're there. It's hard to drink gallons of liquids when you have to study obsessivly, and it's getting hotter, too, which doesn't help. 92 degrees today, or so they tell me. I guess part of it, too, is that I've hardly recovered from the first kidney stone- it's only been almost two weeks. Not a long time to recover from something which was that much of a system shock.
I know it can't be another stone because they take a while to form, and the doc would've seen it on the CT scan if it'd been there.
I hate my body, though. It couldn't just, like, behave? Because I don't have enough stress in my life right now, I really really don't.
So I'm drinking as much as I can, trying not to stress out too badly or do anything stupid. I've already pulled a muscle in my back hefting my backpack- it's the one just above the kidney complaining the loudest. Which is the same one that had the stone two weeks ago.
Yeah. It would be, wouldn't it?
Cheers, gang. I'm off to do battle with conic sections. Oh yeah, and try not to zone out through my last Soc class.
