It's been so long since i've updated this blog that I've almost forgotten how. Today's story centers around the tinyest of living creatures--the lowly bacterium. This one has a name, though--Chlamydia pneumoniae, a very small, very mean, very hardy little bug. Now, normally, this would be OK. The bug goes his way, I go mine, and everyone's happy. However, this particular bug has decided to make its home in my chest and seems to be very well snuggled in. He and his friends are producing copious amounts of goo dribbling down the back of my throat, filling my lungs, and making me hack away bits of alveoli. I LIKE my alveoli!
Pneumonia sucks, but I do get sympathy and free food and stuff. And lots of sleep.
