one month in

So been in Charlotte a month.
Good stuff:
-I like my job a lot. I work for a company called mailVu, which does video email, video testimonial widgets, and other cool stuff with video. I sell the service- people who inquire off the website, currently have free accounts, are in targeted industries (currently email marketing) and through networking.
-My boss is named Alan. He's eager to help me learn and succeed. On Fat Tuesday I had bourbon shots with him and our CIO, Addy. Cool guy.
-I live in Fort Mill, SC and work in uptown Charlotte. This means a half hour commute which can suck. I have a roommate which is surprising. But we get along. And her dog Bogie is best friends with Benson. They chase and wrestle and are quite loud.

Hard stuff:
-I feel like I've been sick the whole time I've been here. Sinus infection, UTI, resistant UTI, IC flareup. Super fun episode of thrush in my mouth from all the antibiotics, not sure if it's gone. Now I'm trying to figure out if some viral crap I had has turned into something more; I can't stop coughing. I'm tired of being sick. "and I do anything to just feel better..."
-I am lucky though, that I found a good doctor pretty soon after I got here; one I trust and have begun to confide in.
-Lonely/homesick: I miss Columbia; I miss my friends, my familiar environment, even my family. I have gone to a few networking events but all professional. On the weekends or after work I usually feel so down physically I can't force myself to go out. So I stick to Twitter and calling Shannon...

I feel like if I could get healthy I would be doing better. But then I think I'm thinking too much about being sick and aaack.
