In sickness and health

miome has been fighting illness since last week. She had sore throat, coughing, mucus, fever, chills, etc. Since this has gone on for awhile, she called up a health line, told her her symptoms, and asked the nurse practitioner for advice.

The nurse practitioner said "You should see a physician within 24 hours." in a tone of voice that Miome said sounded more like "You should have seen a physician 24 hours ago."

So off to a clinic we went. Waited forever, but finally got to see someone. The good news is that she doesn't have pneumonia. The bad news is that she has strep. Which means that there's a chance that I might have strep. And since I don't exhibit sore throat when I get strep, I might have it and not realize it. The clinic was out of strep cultures (obviously, strep is going around o_O).

We're going to keep an eye on me over the next few days. If I develop a fever or start getting really tired (I laughed at this, because seriously, the time change just happened and Miome's coughing kept me up all last night) over the next few days, I'll go get a culture done.

Needless to say, Miome is at home. I'm at home because I went with her to the clinic and because I did not sleep well last night.

Tomorrow is my presentation. I'm going to be working on that all afternoon.

Sigh...

Feral Wolf (original, fic, PG-13)

Finally sat down at put in order all the werewolf bits I've written about Jesse and Gene. I also gave it a title. Go me! I'm at 14 pages and over 5,000 words. Still think there might be a few holes in the plot. Here's the story as it stands right now.

Any suggestions as to what else you'd like to see with these two? Because if not, I'm calling it done.
