It's Staph, not Staff

Well, you know those things I get on my arms and legs occasionally? Those weird, painfull sores? Well, my family dragged me (almost kicking and screaming) to a doctor on Saturday since I have another on my right hand (hurts to write with a pencil), and it has been diagonesed as a Staph infection =(. Apparently I've had it since the first one, and these things are it's number one symptom. That means I've had it for about a year and a half. So now I'm on 2 antibiotics. And I really dislike taking medicine.

School is going ok. Though I need to devote more time to Calc 3. I did a 79 on the last test, and I feel I need to get a B in the class. I hope to spend tomorrow night studying the course material for the test on next Monday. And maybe some of Saturday.

Anyway, I know it's a short post, but I can't think of too much else I should add right now. Except maybe that I work either too many hours or not enough. Anyway, night!

Take your medicine or this infection could kill you. I can't believe you didn't flip out about these sores reoccuring. Even if you aren't killed by it, an infection can have a lot of different debilitating effects on your body.
