From Dawn Till Dusk

Have you heard of the song Ako ang Hari ng Sablay? I think if there’s a Queen for that, it definitely is me. You see, after I accidentally stepped on a big nail late May 2008, another unfortunate incident happened in my-full-of-mishaps-world the past few days. I accidentally ate a big fish tinik last week and it irritated my throat, thanks to a sumptuous sinangag and daing na bangus breakfast I had last week. The irritation was so bad that the throat was so swollen, it got me nursing a high fever for two days-yesterday and Monday.

So with advices from Teacher Julie (she felt the fever I’m wearing when we saw each other last Monday), I went to an ENT doctor yesterday and have my throat seen. Apparently, there was an infection and it was really bad. The doctor had to take a skin sample of a part that he saw swelling, and have it seen in the laboratory for biopsy. Now, how he took the skin sample got me all nervous. Armed with his surgical scissor and a little whisk of anesthesia somewhere in my throat, I saw with my two eyes through a mirror how the skin was cut like a paper! Yikes! Ewww! I nearly fainted. But am glad it’s over and done with.

Right now, am on antibiotics for seven straight days (again!) with hopes that the swelling will soon subside. Sigh. Oh well, if there’s anything good that this new mishap episode gave me, it’s the unexpected shedding of some unwanted pounds. You wouldn’t believe it, but just for a few days, I lost 2.5 pounds already.

Poor Queen of Mishaps Me, really. What next? Being trapped on saddles? *knocks on wood* I hope not. Next time, I’ll really be extra careful, promise!

Hello World!

Sounds like I am new to Wordpress, right? Well, sort of. You see, I’m dozing myself to a lot of readings over at Wordpress’ forums lately. I need to address the errors I’ve been getting when attempting to reply to your comments. That’s why, if you have noticed I haven’t been replying to your comments, the comment plugins of this Blog are the very culprit.

Oh well. Maybe this is part of the consequences I have to bear for downloading hoarding way too many comment plugins. They seem to conflict with one another. As my gracious Hostee had forewarned me: “activate only the plugins you see necessary to make the Blog up and running”. But then again, the stubborn in me who views every plugin I stumbled upon in the world wide web are all but necessary, installed these plugins relentlessly without even thinking the harm it may do this Blog. Now, I’m being punished with the bad karmas. Evils’ laughter for me. Haha!

I also have to find out what seems to be the problem why the Insert more tag isn’t working when viewed in a feed reader. It’s been like that since the WP of this Blog was upgraded to 2.5.

So to you my Blog friends, just bear with. Promise, I’ll get things fixed soon as I can. In the meantime that’s in the wait, let me segway a bit to some long-overdue assignments like child life insurance or else, the sheriff might punish me.
