Lise, are you smoking crack????????

Just because I said that guy was cute that sort of looked like him doesn't mean I like Chris Noth!!!!!

Maybe Mark Ruffalo _and_ Johnny Knoxville. That would cheer me up.

You know who I've been thinking about lately, ever since Lise had to bring up Chris Noth- Beta Girl. I wonder what she's up to...

Sorry, sorry, I meant Mark Ruffalo, just couldn't think of his name! I think of betagirl often, and wonder how she's doing.

Does crack smoking help a sore throat? Cuz I'm up for just about anything right now. Woke up with a 101.3 fever, too painful to swallow. Called my doc's, they told me to come right in. Did a rapid strep test--->I have strep throat. They gave me a shot of penicillin in the butt so I wouldn't have to swallow pills with my very sore throat. Nice. When the doc went to palpate my lymph nodes, I started to cry because it hurt so much . I looooove penicillin (pcn). It is such a good drug. I'm so glad I'm not allergic to it. I can't imagine how people used to suffer before we had 1/pcn 2/central heating 3/indoor toilets 4/hot running water. I am grateful for all of the above.

I used to get strep every year when I was young. It is a relief to know it's something that can be fixed, not just a "virus that will run its course in 7-10 days". I just took more motrin, and am eating tapioca.

Best of all, the last season of 24 just arrived in the mail! I'm going back to bed now. Trip to the doc's wore me out. But when I get up, I can start watching it. Oh, and about tonight's call shift? "Absolutely not!" said my doc. Think she knows me?

Mimi, the pic of your grandma is so sweet, and does look a lot like Alfonsina!
