sickness and health
So apparently the plague decided to visit my house this past week, I was running a fever of 103 at one point. Becky caught whatever I had too, so we’ve been a pretty miserable bunch. The worst part of it is the Wellstar urgent care doctor that I went to told me it was OK for me to go back to work. I freaking work in fast food, if anything I should be precluded from work for even the smallest illness. I ran the 103 fever after they told me that it was OK to go back to work.
Sometimes I think that doctors are all quacks.
The other good part of this weeks story comes before I went to the wellstar (which is kind of like a doctor chain), Becky called our (awful) insurance company to find out where I could go for free. They gave her the name a place that was a half hour away, so she loads me in the car and takes me down there. When we got down there and had filled out all the paperwork, the lady at the desk said it was gonna be $250 bucks. What?!
So it’s taken me four days, but I think I’m on the cusp of feeling 100% again. It helps when you sleep for 10 hours when I did today.
In other news: opening day (if you don’t count that Japanese bull crap that happened this week) is Sunday, Braves open up with the Nats at the Nats new Stadium, look for Hudson to dominate against a fairly weak lineup. On Monday, we’re going down for the home opener, which is always great fun, a few friends are doing a tailgate party that Becky and I will swing by, then we’ve got some pretty good seats just past first base (Gotta love eBay). After that we’ve got another 9 games already lined up, I’m hoping to pick up a few more by scavenging eBay for good deals.

Glad to hear you’re getting better … what a crazy healthcare system you have.
And the attractions of baseball (I guess that’s what you’re talking about) will forever remain a mystery to me.
