Well crap.

You ever had a nightmare that you have to go pee really bad but you can't find a bathroom?  Or worse yet you find one but the sense of urgency never quite goes away?

Yeah.  I fell like that about now.  (ie the UTI is back).  On the plus side, I've got nifty pills that make me pee neon orange.  TMI?  I thought so.  *gr*

Also, I'm about five days shy of my return date for coming off my Leave of Absence from school... Unfortunately, I've already started receiving letters from the bank asking me to repay my student loans.  All these different services are getting in reports from my school that I've dropped out.

WTF?  I'm a bit paranoid about it now.  I'm hanging on by a thread here in keeping myself attending school.  If they mess up my records so bad that I have to re-apply or something, I'm not sure I'll go back right now.  I just don't have it in me.

Yeah, I know.  I'm panicking, but then what's new? 

Anyway, I just hope my financial advisor can straighten things out.

NEON ORANGE???????????

Yup. Neon. In the right light it even glows. ::blinks::

And suddenly I'm picturing Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer lifting his leg on a tree...

That's because of the "glowing" thing, by the way (my mind is a scary place!)

ROFL! Thank you. Now I won't be able to get the image out of my head. ::giggles::

Neither can I...

I *hate* UTIs. I started to get one last week but cranberry juice warded it off. Whoa, orange. That's some kind of impressive.

Oh no, I hope your advisor can help you.

My mom suggested the cranberry juice. Somehow I just couldn't bring myself to choke it down. I can't stand the stuff. So, back with the neon orange. *gr*

Oh no, I hope your advisor can help you.

Thank you, me too!

Whoops, that last anonymous was me. I got logged out.

Ah. I figured it was someone I knew, I just couldn't figure who. :) Since you won't get a reply to the comment I made, here it is again:

The juice does seem to help me but you have to drink it right away, about 4 glasses for 2 days. I water it down sometimes. The orange sounds so much more interesting. :DDD

[saifai.livejournal.com]

Glad to hear it worked for you. Specially considering you'd be miserable otherwise.

...still not drinking any. *gr*

[fantomeq.livejournal.com]

I used to get those damned infections all the time. They suck! I hope you feel better soon.

Saifai, they also make cranberry in pill form, and some of them come in a super-concentrated form too. That's an option if the taste of cranberry juice just can't be stomached. Both the juice and the pill form are very helpful.

[saifai.livejournal.com]

Really? Well that's something then. I didn't know they had those. I'll have to take a look around. Thank you!

I see you don't like cranberry juice. (Personally I only like it ice cold with vodka. *g*)

Did you know that one of the rarely mentioned side-effects of Alka Seltzer is that it clears up UTIs? It's gotta be worth a try, right?

[saifai.livejournal.com]

Alka Seltzer? Dood, I'm so on it. Much better than cranberry juice. I mean, without the Vodka of course. *gr*

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Good luck!
