Well the Doc says I’m on the mend…

Yeah, I wussed out. I went to the doctor yesterday. I’m still running occasional low grade fevers. In fact I went into the office and my temp was normal, 15 minutes later when the Doc saw me, I was running a low grade fever, and my temp was climbing.

The Doc bled me, so he could run all the tests for sexually transmitted diseases and a variety of other things. He wrote me a note to keep my employers off my ass for a couple of weeks and told me to go home, rest, and not to go to work if I was running a fever.

I just got  off the phone with him, and the tests came back all negative. So on the one hand that’s good news, I don’t have anything really nasty, I don’t have any STDs and hey since I’m clean… I’m open for business! Anybody wanna come over and make a guy feel better?

Still no explanation about what I actually had, but the Doc seems to think I’m on the winning side of this and should start feeling normal in a few more days. 

I didn’t go to work today and I’m sure there’ll be hell to pay for that but I’ll burn that bridge when I fucking get to it. I’ll go to work tomorrow and Sunday then I’ll go back to trying to be a good little boy (A.K.A. a Slave).

But for the next two weeks, if I have a fever I’m not going to that shithole.

I was very tired yesterday when I got home, but this morning in addition to the fever I was also awakened by a man’s best friend. No, not a dog… Every man’s BFF! I take that as a sign that I’m getting better.

Hopefully when this passes, I’ll be back to my normal crotchety self and not have any lingering effects.
