Those White Blotches Just Won't go Away or I Intake Only Fluids!

Well, yesterday I got some medicine for my mono. This green mouthwash stuff that may or may not be helping (is it too soon to tell?) and some Tylenol 3 complete with Codeine baby! My throat gets super dry super quick so I keep waking up every hour or so when trying to sleep. It's tough to swallow the OJ, AJ, and water that I've been relegated to. Tough but not impossible. For some reason I am drawn to looking inside my mouth to see if the crazy white blotches are still there... and yes they still are. It is still possible that I have strept throat but I won't know for a day or so when the doctor calls. If that is the case I'll have to take penicillin too! I'll be all hopped up on meds!
I assume it was the codeine but I got super freaked out last night in bed. As I was lying on my pillow for some reason my mind was picturing a vast pile of pillows underneath mine. When I would get up for a drink it would be a weird process where all the pillows connected to the one I was on would unify. If I got up wrong the one that I was using would get buried. It's hard to explain really and completely non-sensical but it scared the hell out of me. Then for some reason it made me think about death and all that fun stuff which put me in an even more paranoid mood. I don't really remember how I got out of it...
I had to miss work the past two days but it was a bitch to try to phone it in. We got through to someone yesterday but not today... I hope they don't think I just no-showed. I did leave a message on my bosses phone so hopefully he got it and knows the truth.
I have to write an essay and do some serious work on my animation... I wonder if the Codeine will affect those??!!??
