Asthma

[crschmidt]

Asthma sucks.

I was in my room tonight, and I couldn't breathe very well. It happens occasionally, especially in fall. Normally, I'd just take my inhaler and be fine again, not have to worry about it. Unfortunately, I haven't been over to McKinley yet to get that perscription filled, so I was stuck without one.

I couldn't sleep, even laying down. I eventually called the nurse hotline and got told to go in first thing in the morning.

Which means I'm stuck not being able to breathe til then.

So, I come downstairs and come to the computer lab. Sitting in here for 30 minutes, my breathing is back to normal. As soon as I get on the third floor, I'm starting to get short of breathe again, and within 5 minutes, it was just as bad as before.

It's most likely just a high pollen count today, but the fact that it happened as I got up to third floor means that I couldn't get back to my bed to sleep.

I'm going to go try and crash on one of the allen Couches now. It's not perfect, but it'll have to do.

At least I can breathe well here. It could be worse.

Asthma sucks.

I crashed on the Allen couches many a night, and I lived on Ground South! Tis a fine option.
