I read that in the booklet he gave me. I told him my work was only scholastic and wouldn't be laborious at all. I don't think he meant that, but it is a good reminder to not try and move out of my apartment immediately after.

To your second question: They gave me everything. When I got home, I spent the rest of the day throwing up. Out of everything, that was the worst part for me.

That sounds intense. I wonder why the pain just hit you at work. Did you stop taking pain killers that day?
