As I’m typing this, my throat just feels awful right now. It’s not as “scratchy” as it would be if I had a real sore throat, but neverthless, it does hurt to swallow. I’ve had this for almost two weeks now and it doesn’t seem to be going away.  I’ve been surfing around on the Internet and it seems that I might have strep throat. Therefore I need to go see a doctor asap as strep throat can be life-threatening if not treated promptly.

Bother.
