^^ WORD. Most likely it is gastritis, and vomiting eleven times would indeed make the throat bleed (been there), but that doesn't change the fact that the stress of your job and maybe other lifestyle factors lower your resistance to infection. Everything I hear from you tells me that you need and want to get the hell out of that hospital. Don't delay it because you think things might get better, or because you reckon you can survive for a bit longer. We were none of us put on this earth just to survive.

This is exactly what I've been telling Rem about his office, which is bad enough without being full of sick people (which actually it sometimes also is) to catch stuff from. If you pick a day this weekend to go through what you can change right now to help preserve your health, and a day next weekend to do the same thing to figure out how to make the break from the job, then it could be the catalyst for something better. We'll be spending our weekend this way too, so you'll be in good sane interesting company. ::hug::

As for the icon question, it's gotta be "MY LIFE IZ RUINED", starring our very own Louis. :D
