Swimming in a Sea of Infectious Disease

Infectious disease has been my life for the past several weeks. We're studying it in therapeutics. We've got about a week and a half to go, and then we'll take what will probably be the biggest test of the semester (aside from finals of course). I've had the pleasure this week of actually contracting my own infectious disease. I think I caught the respiratory virus that everyone else seems to have. Normally I can handle a such an illness, but this particular bug knocked me out yesterday. I had to call into work and skip school and everything. Thanks to my Mr. T-like immune system though, I think I'm starting to win the battle. It feels like things are breaking up in my chest and sinuses, so hopefully I'll be back to normal by the weekend. I better be because Blue's mother and sis are coming to visit on Friday, and thanks to this illness I haven't started cleaning yet. Yikes!
