On Wednesday of last week I started getting a sore throat, and it has stayed with me all weekend, getting so painful that it would keep me awake at night. I’d have to take some tylenol, and also got some numbing throat spray and cough drops. I felt pretty good otherwise, just this damn sore throat. Today, it seems to be less severe, so tomorrow it should be gone. So far, Mariko and the kids have been immune, let’s hope they don’t catch my sore throat.
