Super Cool UT Infection

I've not been writing anything lately on account of having developed this totally wicked UT infection that has convinced my kidneys that using my back as a punching bag is the cool thing to do. The result is incredible amounts of back pain that occasionally borders on unbearable. I was horizontal for the first few days, dozing in and out in a haze of Vicodin-induced drowsiness, but now the infection is nearly gone and as long as I pop some hydrocodone every 6 hours, the pain is tolerable. Which is excellent timing since I will be driving to Phoenix in an hour, staying the night at a Days Inn and flying to London on Monday. I'm super excited for this trip because I've always wanted to go to Europe. I was supposed to go my Junior year of high school, but I couldn't make enough money, working at McDonald's, before the payment deadline. :-( But who cares? Because now I get to spend two weeks gallivanting about England, Scotland and France with my mother. I'm just so antsy! I'm dancing a little as I type this. The anticipation is great though, it's a vacation twenty years in the making. I just felt like I should type something before I left, in case I can't find any wi-fi while I am gone. Wish me luck!
