I went to the doctor this morning after I woke up feeling like I had less of a fever, but still a pretty bad headache and sore throat. I hate going to the doctor, but after three days of feeling like garbage, it was time.
The nurse did the typical poking and prodding, and then took a throat swab. About five minutes later the doctor walked in, stuck her dry popsicle stick down my throat and said, “I don’t care what that test says when it comes back, you have strep. You win the prize for the worst looking throat of the week. That’s really bad.”
Neat.
I am apparently contagious for another three days while on medication so I am back in bed for day four.
I’m starting to envy those with cable.
And in unrelated news, does anyone else think it is funny when grown men, particularly those in professional sports, bump their chests together? I do.

Not a bad diagnosis from across the country. But seriously, I have had that so many times, I totally understand how you are feeling!
Yeah when guys bump chests it just looks painful and I’m convinced that one of these days their going to bump their heads together by accident and get concussions. Then it would be hilarious.
Get well soon [:
Brody,
Strep sucks, but at least it’s not meningitis. I’m currently running the gambit of a sinus infection I think. Since I start teaching a new tax class on Monday, the timing couldn’t be worse. Get better soon!
