sick

I have strep throat. I just woke up at 3 A.M. with a burning need to gargle hot salt water and now I'm waiting for the Nyquil to work its magic.
I'm proud to say I made it a year with no illness though! Apparently it just wouldn't be Christmas without me getting sick. I started antibiotics today and should be feeling much better tomorrow.
I will post something good real soon.
But for now...ouch! The glands in my neck look like golf balls under my skin and my throat feels like a hot, dry, cracked desert.
