a viral sinus infection (FOR THREE FLIPPING WEEKS NOW!!)

Three weeks is usually time to see a doctor, because there's a good chance it's bacterial. Virii don't tend to last longer than 2 weeks.

What if the mucous is not a color that would signify infection?

Ooooh, good question! You know, I have no idea. I guess if the snot is clear, I'd give it a little more time.

I read a thing a while back that the color of mucus is not a reliable diagnostic tool. Can't remember where, but since it was on the internet I assume it was true.

makes call to doctor

I'll go in tomorrow. I hate taking AB's for things other than Real* infections.

* Real as defined by me and not anyone who is actually smart: Strep, UTI's, and STD's.

I'm selective about who calls me what. It's hard to tell someone who's presumptively started calling you by a nickname to stop, though. Especially if you know them or work with them. They take it personally.

I don't like anyone calling me "Rob" and I will nip that shit in the bud. One old friend does, but only because both he and I know that it's a shortened version of "Robbie Bobbie Boo," his ACTUAL nickname for me. Hard to explain that one.

Some people call me "Toddy". Once.

For weeks, my co-worker was calling me "Sunily" until I asked her to please stop. She was very sad.

Ha!

Oh dear. My mother has discovered that "Date My Single Kid" site. She says she's just looking for someone for my sister, because I've got enough going on in my life right now, but she keeps finding people that she thinks will be perfect for me.

If people call me Andy I simply don't respond.

I also plot their demise.

I'm pretty sure anyone who thinks this should get punched in the head. And not in a fun way.

Wait, what?

There's a fun way?
