Turn Down for What?

1. The flu...
2. strep...
3. fevers...

That's right. I went radio silent (minus the whiny, feel sorry for me Facebook updates) for an entire week because I got the flu. After 3 days of that misery, I thought I had weathered the storm but then actually got a swift kick in the behind again and got strep. Clearly Baby J is telling me He's not happy with me.

I wake up on day 5 and decide the time has come to call the doctor. Luckily I can get in to see my main man the same day but not before I go spread all sorts of germs around the office. (feel a bit bad about this now knowing I had strep). Problem is I was walking a fine line of looking like a faker by being out of the office for so many days and actually bringing germs to the office. It's just part of the internal struggle I deal with. #thestruggleisreal

When I arrive in the doctor's office I'm immediately diagnosed with strep without even having to do that terrible throat swabbing, gag reflexing type of test. Woohoo! Give me the drugs! Just when I expect to skew-daddle right on outta there the doc has a few questions for me.

Doc: does anybody you know have similar symptoms as you?
Me: yea, this guy I work with had the same exact thing that I had at the beginning of the week!
Doc: are you close with him?
Me: yea! I sit right next to him!
Doc: no... I mean are you cllllooooseee with him?
Me: haaaaa! oh... no. no i'm not close with him.
Doc: ah ok. usually you get strep from being...close... with somebody if you know what i mean
*internal thought: are we talking about the same thing here? I thought mono was the kissing disease. I also didn't think i'd be getting a mommy and daddy lecture about being careful who i'm "close" with. either way i do not care. just get me the antibiotics son!*
Me: ohhhh. yea i'm not sure then. I've been in the city a lot lately!
Doc: hmmm ok. not sure where you picked it up but let me write you a prescription

JACKPOT.

Snapchat is for Lovers

Get it? I did a lil play off of that song Ohio is for Lovers. I can't say the lyrics relate to the post at all but it was a nice lil flashback to my emo days

Ohio is for Lovers

And here is a fun flashback pic from the emo days!


Ok that was all fun but now back to the snapchat post. VALENTINE'S DAY BRO IS BACK! If you don't remember him.... go back to the February post to catch up. And if you're lazy like me, here are the cliff notes: met the bro on Short Girl's Club Valentine's Day Night Out in the City. Bro read dating 101 before the date and forced me into two of the most awkward goodbye's ever. Fizzled out over a text about Dallas Buyer's Club

SO! Now that we're caught up. He...added...me...on...snapchat... I did the math and it's almost been a year since we've talked, but naturally, the first form of communication we should have after that amount of time would be a snapchat add! Weird. Did I accept you ask? OF COURSE! This can only result in great blogging material. But knowing my luck, this will probably result in a full on relationship in which I will have to hide this blog from him forever and ever and pretend I thought it was adorable that he decided to reach out to me viiiaaa snaaaapchat. But then I will FINALLY get famous off this blog and he'll ask me what the blog was about and I'll have to tell him he was the main character of the blog. Yikes. This is escalating quickly. Better stop while I'm ahead. 

Stay tuned kids. Stay...tuned...
