Self medicated

I was ready to write up a bitch session on how my day was screwed up yesterday by a "friend" but decided that it probably isn't worth my time to do so. I don't know how I will handle the situation with her, or if there really is a situation at all. In her mind, I know there isn't. And that is why I probably won't talk or see her for a long time. Self-centered people are too much of annoyance as it is to let them have an affect in your life. Eliminating her is the best short term move.

I realize that my Lenten sacrifice will need to come to an end. Not that I am succumbing to any need for some hard liquor, but I may have to do it for health reasons. I have had a sore throat for about two weeks now. I didn't think much of it at first and really still don't. But I think I am running a fever as well. I have woken up sweating in the morning with only one blanket. The heat is blasting away either.

So I searched the web for my symptons and it looks like I have confirmation on what I was thinking. I probably have strep throat. Not as severe as what it could be but most likely that is it. I have two choices. See a doctor or see the Doctor.

I don't go to doctors because if I get sick, I can cure myself quickly. That is where the Doctor really comes in. Doctor McGillicuddy will cure me. Any time I get a cold, I will drink whisky or tequila to get rid of it. That cold will be gone in 1 day. But will the same method work for strep throat? The websites say antibiotics. I think Maker's Mark is my antibiotic. Thus my Lenten sacrifice may have to been broken just so I can get better.
