What an annoying week to get sick

[RoJoHen]

I haven't been sick in over 3 years, but this week, just as all my friends are coming home for the holiday, I get strep throat. I didn't get to hang out with anybody. I didn't even get to go to my grandma's for Thanksgiving dinner! Hell, I was supposed to go on a date (my first real date EVER) earlier in the week, and I couldn't because I was sick!

And strep throat? Seriously? I haven't had strep in 5 years! The last time I had strep, I had my tonsils removed.

I've lost about 10 pounds since Tuesday because I haven't been able to swallow anything.


I did spend all Thanksgiving Day finally watching Season 4 of new Doctor Who, so that was good. But still! I never get to see these friends except for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I like to savor as much of it as I can. Instead, I didn't get to do anything. Very lame.

Dang, rough break.

When I was in sixth grade i had my appendics out on Christmas Eve...spent 3 days in the hospital. Does that help?

Sorry to hear you've been so sick. Losing weight like that can't be a good sign. I actually get ill quite often and I've taken to thinking of it as a good thing when it's over some sort of holiday. That was it's my leisure time that's suffering, and not my work!

 

[RJDiogenes]

That sucks, RoJo, especially the part about the date. I hope you are able to reschedule soon.

It seems that the Gods are conspiring against you RoJo. Might I suggest a ritual sacrifice?

I don't even know which god is doing it!

Look at it this way: You can see your friends, have fun with each other, and not get hungover the next day.

Well, no, they've all gone back to their homes. I missed my chance to see them.

Easy. Sacrifice to them ALL.

Then go find Malnati's, Aurelio's or any other purveyor, and drown your sorrows.

Um...I'm on antibiotics. I don't think I'll be drinking.

Now, I could be jumping to conclusions, but just how many virgins are available at such short notice...?

I was referring to drowning sorrows in pizza.

In that case, I'm going to wait until food actually starts to taste like food again.

That works.



Bad luck, RoJo. Illness always happens when it's the most inconvenient. Still, going by past experience you won't be sick again for a long time

So sorry to hear that you're sick. Strep throat?! STAY AWAY FROM ME! I'm VERY suseptible to strep throat. Right now I'm under the weather as well..but just from woman's troubles..and a bit of a sour and upset stomach. It sucks. Hope you get to feeling better though! :thumbsup:
