Nevertheless…

After some time, finally, I was given a medical leave for my sickness that can possibly be contagious due to its nature to be airborne… But don’t worry, it ain’t that severe. Its just that it will definitely interfere with my job if I’m literally ‘barking’ at the operations floor.But the thing that’s weird to me is my sickness… Based on the Medical Certificate, it’s called:

“Pneumonitis”

Now what on earth is that?

“

*Pneumonitis is a general term for inflammation of lung tissue. Chronic inflammation of lung tissue can lead to irreversible scarring (pulmonary fibrosis). Pneumonitis isn’t a specific disease but a sign of an underlying problem. All pneumonias show pneumonitis under the microscope, but not all pneumonitis is pneumonia. Other causes include: Inhalation of foreign matter, usually of stomach contents when vomiting (aspiration pneumonitis) Exposure to an inhaled allergen (hypersensitivity pneumonitis) Adverse reaction to a drug or toxic chemical (drug- or chemical-induced pneumonitis) Radiation therapy to the lung for cancer Sepsis — a body’s inflammatory response to infection Signs and symptoms depend on the severity and underlying cause, if known, and may include: Shortness of breath Cough Burning sensation in chest A doctor may diagnose pneumonitis based on: History of the illness Physical examination Chest X-ray or computerized tomography (CT) scan Blood tests Pulmonary function tests Lung biopsy Culture of lung secretions — organisms are grown from a sample of infected secretions Treatment depends on the underlying cause and may include medications such as: Corticosteroids Antibiotics

Wow! This sickness is far serious than I thought…  So that means a strict recovery protocol should be implemented. Or else… *goosebumps*

Dammit… This means that I won’t be capable to visit Jenn for this week… what am I doing? Maybe I’m not putting my  priorities  to their proper levels…  But nevertheless, all of the uncertainties will end this summer.

The company “Summer Carnivale” is only days away… And it will be the last company activity that I can attend to. So I know that they’ll pressure me to attend, even though I do not attend so such crap stuff. According to E-mail updates, we are entitled to bring one adult and one child, free. cool… but the question is: who do I bring? The child slot is already out of the equation, since I’m NOT a father.

Of course, Jenn would be the first option, but I know that she’ll decline since I haven’t acquired her complete trust. So who’s who? An SMS this morning answered my question… Dude! We haven’t been together for sometime, since I’m busy with my Job and she’s busy finishing her requirements to graduate (finally), and I think this would be a subsidized (monetary-wise) procedure. And besides, bringing a “gorgeous” gal would make the atmosphere very interesting.

A lot of people are questioning my intentions with my dude, Ayik. Can’t blame them (especially the boys), but I want to make myself clear:

“We know our limits. And besides, my heart is already set for Jenn… And I don’t want lightning strike twice on me…”

She’s fun to be with and stuff like that, but I’m a kind of person that “declares static variables”.

Just wanna have fun for my last days at my company…
