Oh, hey, just so people know...

Our household is currently stricken with strep throat. While I'm personally not suffering from any obvious symptoms of such a thing (knock wood), both [livejournal.com profile] bk2w and [livejournal.com profile] tshuma are doing so to varying degrees. So, y'know, if you don't get a friendly lick from me upon seeing you, I don't mean any offense by it, and it's for your own protection.

I suppose it's just as well that I'm taking the second half of the fire-eating class tonight. P'raps that'll help sterilize my suspect throat a bit :-)

Auggghhhhhh!!! You said the s-word.

As recent polls have indicated, I seem to be not-so-susceptible as I was a student; when just hearing the word would cause me to fall ill. I've let up on people typing the word at me anymore. But that is a /very/ recent change.

[livejournal.com profile] tshuma comes back to DH and writes on nonexistent blackboard 100x: "it's only a sore throat."

Heh, I can just see it: "Fire eating for beginners. 100% of survivors pass."

It's a dirty evil plague, I say. Everyone in Canada has it.
Or at least everyone in this general area.

So, how many days should pass before I can declare myself healthy?

Not sure. The last time I was exposed (that I can recall and knew about) I was, like, twelve years old, so I don't actually know much about it.

I should probably do a web search.

Ungh. So glad I haven't see you in awhile. Like [livejournal.com profile] princeofwands I catch strep just thinking about it sometimes! And I'm terrified of it since that's when they discovered the Graves.

That and the fact that I once had to call a hottie I barely know a week after we made out to keep on eye on his throat.
