We stayed home from school yesterday (I had to miss a Dance Contest at school! My group came in 3rd). Then in the afternoon the 3 of us went to the doctor. There Stryker and I got tested for Mono and Strep. Merrick, we found out, definitely has Pink Eye, and I definitely have Strep Throat (but no Mono). However, Stryker was negative for both Mono and Strep (even though his Throat was more red than mine), but they are sending his 'something or other' from the throat swab to get cultured... or something... anyways, he almost definitely has Strep too.
So last night I missed my first performance EVER. The understudy understudies all the girls in the cast, but I am the youngest one (obviously) which means all my characters are age seven and under... keep in mind the understudy is a teen. It must have been pretty weird because at one point I play a four year old, and my MOTHER and FATHER are played by teenagers!!!
Anyways, I'm going to my show tonight. I feel much better and it must because of at least one of the medicines I took last night (ha). I first took medicine for Strep (the boys had to take it to just in case). Then approximately 3 hours later I took a ROUND pill (it was actually like a little ball... it was odd) , then I took NightQuil half an hour later, and slept quite well. Hopefully my show won't make my throat hurt so much that I lose my voice!!!!
