Coughs are Like Unwanted STDsOkay, bad analogy but I have this cough that just won't go away. It all started about two weeks ago when I got a pretty bad cold. I've completely recovered from the cold but my cough won't subside. I heard that people who have had bronchitis before in the past (I had acute bronchitis when I was young) will suffer from bad coughing bouts whenever they are sick but this coughing is getting a little ridiculous.
I saw a doctor last Saturday and he prescribed me with some codeine cough syrup, nasonex, and Spiriva capsules with a Handihaler. That's a lot of medication to fight just a cough and I really don't see it working anyway. If I don't get better by this tomorrow, I'm going to go see the doctor again and ask to be checked for pertussis, or the whooping cough as it's commonly called, because those kind of coughs can last anywhere from 2 weeks to 3 months. The Chinese call it the 100 day cough and I don't want to see if that's a misnomer. Be gone already COUGH!!!
Rose Bowl Flea MarketEvery second Sunday of the month, the Rose Bowl in Pasadena has this huge flea market where thousands of vendors come to sell antiques, paintings, and other home accessories. I honestly thought two hours would be enough time to shop (being that I'm a quick shopper) but there were just too many vendors and too much ground to cover. If you plan on going and want to find good deals, plan on being there for at least half a day.
Events GaloreThere were so many events that occurred since the last time I posted. Too many actually that I'll probably only be recalling or posting half of the events. Of course, what better way to remember than with pictures...
Blasts from the Recent PastThe Rise and Fall of JoeyJoey and Winston passed the California State bar exam!!! Congrats guys! The passing rate in California is around 48% so you guys did well. Winston was actually indifferent about his good news but Joey wanted to get messed up on the night results were posted. He said that either way, he'd be drinking so a bunch of us went out to this nice little lounge in Arcadia... That's right, Arcadia. And no, I didn't mistype. I swear this Arcadia lounge is off the chain incredible. And so close to my house too. Absolutely perfect.

It's so strange because that place is usually packed with a good crowd whenever Go Productions host the parties there. But, I still had fun.
