Sick

Well, yesterday's was Ben's birthday party, which was fun. It's always nice to be with friends. And I liked spending more time with Jamie, Ben's girlfriend, who I'd really like to get to know better. It was a fun occasion.

I even felt better than i had a in a while. So much better that I was sure that I was over whatever I was so over. But then I woke up this morning with a 100˚ fever and feeling gross. My throat was especially killing me. I did have a few jello shots last night, so I put it down to that intead, even if I don't get hangovers.

I was all preparede to go to work, since I'd already missed a couple days, but Mom wanted to be cautious so she dragged me to the clinic just to make sure. Good thing.

The doctor did the normal check my breathing, check my ears, and my thraot. Breathing as normal as expected for an asthmatic in January, ears good, throat not so much. Turns out I have a strep infection which I'm lucky hasn't turned into full-out strep throat yet.

So I'm on antibiotics and I can't work for another few days. Not that I totally mind, but I hate being sick and I hate taking medicine. Though I'd prefer all this to strep throat. Ugh. That would be bad.

I'm 90% certain I didn't share food or drink with anyone last night, so they should all be okay. I'd feel really bad if I got one of my friends sick.
