Skipped volunteering

[judecorp]

I skipped out on volunteering at the HelpLine tonight. Old Left Tonsil is at it again.

It started being sore on Sunday night at cranapril's and continued to bother me through yesterday. It's a bit bigger today, so I'm more annoyed by the pressure than the pain. I'm hoping that if I don't do too much talking tonight, and if I eat soft foods, gargle, and take advil that it will go back down or at least not be any bigger tomorrow.

I called the volunteer coordinator and asked for the likelihood that my co-volunteer would show up. When zie said zie didn't know, I got in the car and started driving over. Halfway through Roxbury, zie calls and says my co-volunteer is there and I should turn around, go home, and feel better. I [heart] hir.

I feel like a boob for not volunteering, though. But I think 2.5 hours on the phone would have been a poor choice.

Can you get your tonsils just taken out? Is that possible? I feel so bad for your poor throat.

Yes, I can. In fact, I have an ENT surgeon who would love to do it. But I'm not in any kind of hurry to have major surgery (yet) and my tonsil has been behaving this year so I hadn't really thought about it.

But if it is worse tomorrow I will probably be taking a trip to see him. We'll see. I keep hoping it will just go down on its own. Tonsils have rights too, you know! They help fight infection!

In reference to your other post...

It is my opinion that you should def sell the house and buy the one you and Jen want WHERE you both want. It will definitely build your relationship and your family roots together rather than being in a place neither of you really want to be in. Good luck with all of it though. I can't imagine how difficult it must be.

Thanks. I just hope we can make it all work. Without breaking up, preferably. :)
