After consuming all the fluids in the world, and a fair amount of hot-sauce-spiked cheese with garlic crackers, I am now feeling much more like a living human being. You probably still shouldn't kiss me, but that's because of the garlic crackers. My body temperature is still a bit higher than usual, but it's 98.3, compared to standard 97.9. Much better than the previous 99.8. Still don't know what the problem is/was. Not strep, despite having been exposed. Not pneumonia, despite feeling for the last few days as if I had iron bars wrapped around my chest. Probably something viral, said Dr. Younger-than-Me, rest, drink lots of fluids, have some chicken soup. Anyway. (I'm pretty sure Dr. Younger-than-Me is a med student. At least, she had to go talk to some other doctor before making any diagnoses or decisions. Still, neither x-rays nor strep cultures lie, so I'm pretty sure she's right about no strep or pneumonia.)

It's been nice to have a couple days of time off, even though I've spent most of it either napping or staring at the PC screen. I should be using it to prep EiR class. Maybe I'll get some of that in when I get done with this post, who knows?

I probably would kiss you. I eat so much garlic I smell of it, happily Jim does too, so we can live in our garlic scented world without grossing out each other LOL

I'm sorry to hear you weren't feeling well. ::passes the garlic::

I'm glad you don't have strep. I don't even have a normal strain. The pope and I have taken to calling it Strep Q, X, Z.

Garlic is an excellent reason to kiss someone.

You give the reason of you've been eating garlic as a reason NOT to kiss you? Did you forget how many of us that would read this post are garlic lovers? And I'm sure there's a featherynscale lover (or 80) floating around out here too.

Deterrent not effective. Please try again. :P

Just made some cheesy garlic bread this evening (after being inspired by your post). Pucker up, sweet lady!
