My sister is eating Spicy Doritos and popcorn — right in front of me.

This wouldn’t be such a big deal if I could swallow.

This morning, as I got ready for work (I went in to make up for being out Tues/Weds), my throat was a little sore. By the time I got home early this afternoon, I was having a bitch of a time swallowing.

I talked to my aunt a little while ago. She said this virus has been going around, and even with antibiotics it takes forever to go away.

I thought I was home free. I spent yesterday eating pretty normal food — as opposed to soup and oatmeal. I was saving the Doritos for today.

I can smell those delicious spicy nacho chips from five feet away, and it’s driving me crazy.
