I’m kind of surprised how quickly I made it out of the doctor’s office this morning.  Normally when I go to Urgent Care it’s not urgent at all.  I can sit there for hours waiting to be seen, but I was lucky this morning.  That’s probably because we were sitting in the parking lot waiting for them to open, and I threw up twice while Hubby was filling out my paperwork.  The nurse decided to take me on back so I didn’t have to keep running into the public bathroom.

I wasn’t throwing up because I’ve got anything stomach related.  I just have a very weak stomach, so when all this stuff is draining into my stomach I end up puking it back up.  Nice, huh?  lol

I got my antihistamine shot, and the doctor gave me a few samples of Zyrtec, and told me it would probably be best for me to switch.  I’ve been on Allegra, but it’s just not working for me anymore.  He told me I’ll probably be really sleepy on the Zyrtec at least for a few days, but I can handle that.  When I feel like this I stay really tired anyway.

Anywho if things don’t start clearing up for me by the end of the week he said I might have to start weekly allergy shots again.  I seriously hope not because I hate them.  I’m not scared of shots or needles, I just hate having to get a shot every week for something as lame as allergies.

Friday night we stopped by to see my friend Casey. She’d just been to a cooking convention with her mom, and she asked me to come over to check out some of the cool stuff she got at the convention. I keep telling her she should have went to culinary school because this girl loves to cook, and she’s awesome at it.

While I was checking out her new cooking goods, Hubby was checking out the newest gun her boyfriend purchased. He’s a gun collector, and he has a really awesome collection…locked up in a very expensive safe for protection I might add.

Casey mentioned to me she had also purchased a new gun that I should check out. It’s a .22, and it’s one of the coolest smaller hand guns I’ve seen in a long time. Since she makes a lot of trips to Atlanta by herself for work, she has a permit to carry concealed. She already has one handgun, but she’s afraid to keep it in her purse because she thinks the stuff in her purse could end up bumping it and making it fire if it’s cocked and loaded.

The new .22 doesn’t have anything that can stick out in the way and get hooked on something like a keyring or bumped by anything when it’s loaded. She can stick it in her purse without worrying about it going off.

That had me thinking about my mom. She has a permit to carry concealed as well, and when she had to travel she always takes her gun with her. She’s got a very nice 357 magnum, and thankfully she’s never had to use it, but she’s got it if she needs protection. She absolutely would never keep it loaded in her purse, but she still carries it if she’s going to be traveling.

Then this morning I saw these Galco purses that have a built in gun holster in them, and I thought that would be absolutely perfect for my mom.

I still haven’t bought my mom a Mother’s Day present yet, so I might just talk to Hubby about ordering her one of these if I can afford it. I think it’s a great idea for a present.

I’m definitely going to show these to Casey, too. I bet it would give her a little more piece of mind knowing she has a built in compartment especially for the gun.

I feel like I spent last night sitting in Death Valley screaming at the top of my lungs. Ya know I can handle itchy eyes. I can handle the sneezing, runny nose, or stopped up nose even. I can handle the headaches, but good god I can’t stand it when my throat and the roof of my mouth feel like someone fed me razor blades and sandpaper.

Thankfully I don’t have any customers lined up today, so I shouldn’t really have to talk much. If someone calls me I know how to ignore the call. I’m debating on walking up to my Grandparent’s to get some of Nana’s good ‘ole Rock n Rye cough medicine. If that shit doesn’t know this stuff outa me I don’t know what will.
