My Whole Self Hurts

I'm working on getting over strep throat that has wiped me out for the last two days. Two thinks really sucked about this little bout with strep: 1) a persistent fever approaching 104 degrees, and 2) when I was finally able to eat something, it tasted like sand. Now, the former was definitely the worse of the two because I really have not had an appetite at all. That blasted fever kept me up all night long and made me so very uncomfortable. Fortunately, after considerable drug intervention (namely a penicillin prescription), I'm starting to feel almost normal. I'll tell ya, though, I haven't been sick like this for almost two years. In March of '05, I came down with strep and it knocked me out for four days. Of course, I didn't get it diagnosed for two days.

Well, enough of that. I just wanted to check in and see how everything was. In my absence, there's been quite a bit of traffic on this site, which is very good.

I'm getting tired, so it's time that I go in the other room and watch another movie. :) Chao!!
