so i told you guys about this job in new york and how there was a good chance of being bitten by ticks. well i went to the e.r. last night and have lyme disease.

i woke up yesterday morning and couldnt move a muscle. i eventually went to work and then took a 3 hour nap after work. then later yesterday i started having horrible body pains. by 830 last night i was crying because my body ached so bad. i was dizzy, had a headache... the works. so my boss took me to the e.r. and i have to take Doxycyclin for 30 days, twice a day.

luckily, being on this antibiotic for a month basically guarantees that I wont get it again while Im here. I guess it stays in your system for quite a while.

Im much better today and my body aches are almost gone. so if youre ever in the catskills... check for ticks! lol
