Got Da Strep

Bleh!That’s not me, but that’s about how I feel right now.

Tuesday, I went in to the local Urgent Care facility to be told what I already knew: you got strep! It’s something I used to get yearly or maybe every other year until I was in my mid 20s. The symptoms were all too familiar and it probably helped that my wife was in the process of being treated for it.

If you’ve been following my Jaiku stream, you probably know all this. Heck, I’ve been using it to help me to remember which pain medication to take when. I have to alternate Tylenol and Advil every couple of hours to prop myself up. Update: And Penicillin. Can’t forget that.

I have some posts in the can, which should tied you all over until I am over the worst of this horrible disease. Meanwhile, I’m going to pop some more pharmaceuticals and crawl into bed.
