Strep Throat sucks

I guess it's the universe telling me to behave for a week. :)

This has been quite the experience. My glands were so swollen that I could not touch my own neck nor swallow. I made a crazy face with each gulp attempt.

The funny thing is I'm so blunt with describing my symptoms and my rationale for them initially, I make my nurse assistants/techs blush. LOL.

I'm on antibiotics now and hope to be eating solids in the next day or so. :)

Next week, watch out SF!!! It's time to misbehave and play!!!

Did you know where February went?

Between the new job and flying to Houston for a quick family business trip, February flew by. Happy Birthday to both Mom and Dad.

Hey Dad, this one's for you!

I'm loving my time in SF with my roomies and other friends. We had a drag night, Xbox 360 game nights and I even had a zombie scavenger hunt night. Thanks to a big aquatic site, I'm having a few other interesting adventures as well. Not adventurous my ass!!!
My fellow travelers at work have been hilarious. We are a rare breed I do believe. I've gotten my med surg floor experience by working at this Kaiser and thanks but no thanks. I do the happy dance when I see my name on the ICU list from staffing. I'll take the psycho, drunks in isolation just to be in the ICU. Yeah, that's how bad I dislike floor nursing.

I'm looking forward to the next months as SF weather improves and I can do some hiking and wine tasting.
