Apperantly, in this day and age you don’t really need a doctor to diagnose your sickness. You just need a mirror, and the internet. I was dead on. I have strep throat. Everyone that I have talked to that has had this, tells me how bad it is.

I gotta say, it’s really not that bad. It’s gross looking, thats for sure. But other than the pain when you swallow, it’s really not terrible. The left side of my throat is really bad I guess, that side hurts more than the right side. I don’t feel that bad though. Day before yesterday, I felt like shit. Yesterday and today, i feel ok. I’ve had flu’s that were way worse than this though. If it wasn’t for the fact that it’s highly contagious, I would’ve gone back to work today. I told them I was coming in tomorrow, but Jim called me back and told me to stay home. He said it’s supposed to snow tonight, and to just stay home and relaxe. Nice thing for him to do, but I really need to work, I have shit to do.

Billy called me today, to tell me about something he saw on TV. (MXE, if you haven’t seen it, it’s hysterical!) Anyway, he asked why I was at home, and I asked the same about him. He just had surgery on a hernia. I didn’t even know. We decided that we might meet for breakfast tomorrow since we’re both off work. I think I’m going to have to pick him up though. He got T-boned and his truck was totalled. Let’s see if he alls me tomorrow morning.

I havn’t been to a doctors office in 10 years. So I went in to work this morning for two reasons.
1. It’s my week to open up
2. Ask Wendy where the nearest doctors office is

She told me of a place called Urgent Care right around the corner from the house. So I left the office, and went there this morning. Urgent Care my ass, they’re not even open yet. So I’m home, waiting for 9:00 to call them, and hoping that they open then.

Apparently shitty TV isn’t just a Thursday phenomenon. I’m almost wishing for a Saved by the Bell marathon. Almost.
