Sore

I've been battling a very sore throat the last two days. I stayed home from work yesterday to try and sleep it off, and while it did improve in the late afternoon/evening, by the time I was going to bed and throughout the night, it was back again with a vengeance.

Today it seems as bad if not a bit worse. I called the doctor and have an appointment scheduled for this afternoon. So now I've just got to make it from now to then. And the I've got to wait for whatever medicine they prescribe me to do its job.

Perhaps I've got strep throat. All I know is that right now, I can't swallow without very strong pain and I haven't eaten all morning as a consequence. So, my energy level isn't very strong either. I guess I should try to get some office work done--stuff that isn't very taxing--but I just want to sleep. I'm sure I'll pay for putting things off later.
