...ewww!...Emily....That's gross!!...

Ok, nobody panic. No, I'm not turning into an blood-sucking vampire (although, sometimes that idea does appeal to me), but I did have strep throat for most of last week. Don't worry, after 4 days the Amoxicilin finally kicked in. I'm not sure why it took so long...either it was a really bad infection (yipee!!) or maybe it was because the antibiotics only cost me about $2.75 for 10 days worth of pills. I'm feeling much better now, and relieved that I am not, in fact, dying.

Isn't that picture disgusting. It makes me laugh every time I look at it. I couldn't sleep last Wednesday night so I took multiple shots of my throat. I figured I could capture the moment for all of you. What? Don't tell me you don't appreciate it...

So next week is "Halloween Week" at school. We had a student council meeting about what activities we could do...I realised I'm really not that creative. In fact, I can't even think of a good costume. Nothing can top the Oompa Loompa of last year...and I'm feeling like straying away from the typical elf-fairy-munchkin combinations I usually fall into. Any suggestions??
