so, i'm sick! great! and no, it's not just some little cold, it's pretty sick.
i'm re-enacting that commercial with the whiny little girl saying "it'll hurt if i swallow..." every five minutes. seriously, i hate being sick. the glands are swollen, my throat is killing me, snot keeps running everywhere, and my mouth gets SO dry! yuck!
i know, i know, i should go to a doctor, right? well, i don't have an insurance card yet. and, i can't go to any doctors on base, nooooooo, that would be too easy. teachers can't go there. we have to go off base. what? so, i don't really feel like trying to explain to someone that i am a new teacher and don't have my card yet when they don't speak very good english. so, i'll be stubborn.
i'm doing what my mom would tell me to do. i'm drinking lots of fluids, seriously, i'm peeing about every 5 minutes. i'm getting lots of rest. i'm taking advil, since it is an anti-inflammatory and it helps my throatache. i'm gargling saltwater. and yes, mom, i might even snarf it soon. just for you!
all of this would be solved if i could just go surfing. when i'm surfing i naturally gargle saltwater, and i naturally snarf it when it goes up my nose on a wipeout. :)
so yeah, sick. yucky.

just the thought of snarfing saltwater makes me gag. ick ick ick! Glad you are taking care of yourself as best you can though! When should you get an insurance card?
WOW !! So whhhhhiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnneeeeeeeyyyyyyyyy ...
It's almost like you're here =0
I like it =) Not that you're sick, but I do miss your whining (a little) =)
Hope you feel better VERY soon ... don't forget the Vick's Vapo Rub! I bet it's almost as effective as snarfing.
Love you!
