Ugh. My tonsils hurt so much when I swallow that I can't sleep. This is so dumb.

[looks around for treatment ideas on the web] Hmmm "avoid acidic drinks" .... "gargle with lemon juice"... uh, okay, so long as I don't drink it?

Darn, my usual (and very effective) strategy when I get a bug is to sleep as much as possible.

The verdict is that I have galloping strep -- absolutely no question, even with the little 6 minute quick test. I've probably had it for a few days, and was probably contagious before I knew I was sick, so be warmed.

Didn't sleep more than a wink last night, and between being sore and being swollen enough to trigger my gag reflex I'm not sure when I get to start. And I'm feverish and ache all over and the whole bit.

But in theory at least I'll be done being contagious by noon tomorrow.

When my life has been failing to be surreal, I just stop by the school's discussion board...

Watching this with a fever is especially amusing....
