I am sick.

For the past two days I have had a fever and a sore throat. And to make things worst I have a sunburn across my face and on my arm from the fair.

1. are you gargling?

You ought to be gargling with warm salt water several times a day.

Are you drinking lots of fluids?

Are you taking some Vitamin C, or orange juice?

For the sunburn, I recommend some aloe vera gel. But the burn should get better soon.

2. I hope you feel better on Tuesday

Here's a website that's helpful for determining what the problem may be, and whether you should go to the doc.

4. Yuck!

Every time I've had strep, I've known -- I start projectile-vomiting. I guess it triggers my gag reflex or something.
