Smooth
Saturday, February 28th, 2009Wow, things went well today. Slept in. Got out of the house around 11am. Went to the post office to mail my tax forms. Went to the bank. Walked by one of my favorite restaurants for vietnamnese pho and there was no line! (Shocking, for a place that is ALWAYS packed.) So I popped in […]
Drained
Friday, February 27th, 2009Finally, I am done being sick. It’s taken nearly all month to get over this illness.

Good thing. We’ll see what the cultures show, but this sore throat is around way too long by now. {Update: Negative for streptococcus. Doc thinks […]
Bad sick
Friday, February 6th, 2009Blech. COUGH COUGH. This was a bad illness (and still is). Headache, sore throat, myalgias… At least the fever broke since Monday, but the throat is terrible. All night I was tossing because of a killer sore throat. Each time I swallowed it was like someone was jabbing into my neck with a screwdriver.
So I’m […]
Good news, bad news
Wednesday, February 4th, 2009So the good news first? Two manuscripts of mine got accepted for publication. One yesterday and one today. On a role, baybay!! I just doubled my publication list in 24 hours.
Bad news? Woke up Monday morning with a sore-ish throat, which progressed to myalgias, arthralgias, cough, and by nighttime I had a fever. Tossed […]
