No Thank You.

So yeah, guess what?  When I woke up with half a sore throat and a shooting pain my ear, I most definitely didn't think it was strep.  Turns out my degree in not doctoring isn't so good for diagnosis.  Strep it is.  I don't think I ever had strep or if I did, I blocked it from my memory, because this shit HURTS.  And now I'm sitting here recounting all the times Alex stole a drink from my cup and Sam crammed his nuk in my mouth over the past day or so.  I might be being a big ol' wimp here, but I do not know what I am going to do with either of these boys if they get this.  Are you allowed to sedate them until it's over?  Am I allowed to sedate myself until it's over?  'Cause that sounds amazing.
