rotten to the core
I went to the doc-in-a-box this AM to see if this is really just the flu, or was it strep? My throat has been hurting so bad the last two days I can hardly swallow. Both the doc and I laughed about the seeming incongruity of hoping it was strep, because that can be fixed quickly, while the flu just has to drag on. Guess what-- it's officially "the creeping crud" as the doc said, so no quick fix for me. She gave me some stuff for symptomatic relief, but believe me, it ain't all that and it definitely left its bag of chips at home. Oh, and I have a migraine, too. I think I've only been awake about 8 hours out of the last 30 or so, and I am SO happy about that. This is one of the few times in the last three years I've regretted living alone-- going to the store took every bit of energy and concentration I possessed, and probably should have had a little more than I had available.
The really good news is that my insurance seems to be in place. If this had happened before the insurance kicked back in, or before the financial aid was disbursed, it woulda just been too bad. So, on that note of giddy joy, I'm going back to bed. I wish I had some books I haven't read before, is all.
