Humble Pie


After my last post I had a little bit of a run in with one of the items bashed within its paragraphs. It wasn't with Mexican cartels, despite my best efforts for armed confrontation.
I started feeling like I had a scratchy allergy throat last Monday night. Sara(my hot girlfriend), says to me that she thinks I'm getting sick. I dismiss this and continue on my way. That night I got a huge fever and kept it for almost three days. She finally took me to the Doctor on Wednesday and I get the throat and nose swab. I literally cough in the ladies face who took the sample. Twenty minutes later the Doc comes in and won't get anywhere near me. He tells me I have Type A flu. He then draws out a diagram and says the only type of flu going around from Type A is the dreaded Swine Flu. I looked at him like he must be joking and that it's not nice to joke about such a thing. I am thinking this right as he hands me a face mask and sends me on my merry way. Apparently I got lucky, there is only one type of Anti-viral that still fights Swine Flu and I luckily am not allergic to it.
That was easily the sickest I've ever been my entire life. That fever is sooo brutal it belongs at a Dethklok concert! Now I'm doing fine but still coughing up lots of weird stuff. The moral of the story is, don't blog about global pandemics that you can easily get. This was a decent serving of humble pie!

  2. A fever that belongs at a Dethklok concert? That is one gnarly fever!

    I guess you learned that Mexico does not know how to take a joke.

  3. hmmm... and to think I was with you during the most critical times and I never got it... my immune system rocks! The best was when you came out with your mask on, and my eyes got all wide and my mouth fell open a bit... haha..
