'Tis makin' me kind o' sick
Unpleasant:
Staying home sick from work on Monday.
Worse:
Hearing on Tuesday morning that there is a case of bacterial meningitis running around campus somewhere. They've contacted all the students who would have had contact with Student Zero, but I have a feeling that the don't ever ask about grownups whose office they went to and coughed on.
I don't have any of the primary symptoms (high fever, headache, and stiff neck) but I did have a few of the secondary ones (nausea, confusion, and sleepiness). My first thought was "AIEEEEEEEE! I have it! I have to go get diagnosed!" Then I read that it is diagnosed via spinal tap. You know what? I think I will hold off and see if I develop any actual symptoms. Spinal taps are the hypochondriac's kryptonite.
