Quarantined

I have strep throat. Gross. Do a google image search and you'll see what I mean. After a week of doing my best to ignore a horrible sore throat (and pretty much just going to work, coming home and going to bed immediately), I finally sucked it up and went to the doctor. I sat in the Urgent Care waiting room for three hours, they did the swab, and the next morning I got the good news. Now I have about a week and a half's worth of antibiotics to get through. Eighteen hours of antibiotics in my system have already resulted in drastic improvements, thank god.

If I understand the situation correctly, I will have been on antibiotics for enough time to no longer be contagious in about three hours. My roomies will be delighted!
