go to New York, come back sick
What’s this? Tiffany is silent for a week following the Recruiting 2006 show? How can this be?
I’ll tell you. I came back from New York with a scorching case of strep throat, and I blame the trip! Think about it- mass travel, a conference where you shake hands with all those people and you don’t know where they’ve been, and that skanky, skanky hotel I stayed in. I started feeling the first twinges Wednesday night, and by Thursday, I had a fever that lasted three days- right through my birthday and into the family gathering surrounding my husband’s couisn’s wedding. So thanks, y’all.
I get to a doctor this morning, and she said what you never want to hear a doctor say: “Oh my GOD! Look at your tonsils!”
But aside from contracting the plague, I must say that I had a great time at the conference. I met lots of people I had previously only known from their blogs (hi guys!), lots of people who are curious about “that blogging thing,” and just generally had a really good experience.
But if you’ll excuse me, I have to finish getting over the plague…

Tiffany, I sincerely am grateful we finally met in person and imagine .,…neither of us had horns! You can get a mosquito to chat …you are just that easy to talk to ..come to mention did that mosquito carry the plague? Yes as you stated on my blog today we shared another thing in common ….the worse sickness in recent memory. I know three who were sick when they shaked my hand …and I shall take names and download my angst for years to come against these ruffians. I think people who have foam at the mouth shouldn’t shake hands ..is that rude? People with boils on their tonsils should be at home getting their house plants sick, not poor Dave and Tiff. My whole family is living in a Red Zone now. Oh but what fun we had. I shall think back of those kobe beef skewers at the Recruiting.com mixer with bliss … between coughing odd substances. God bless …hope you get better. I hope to as well.
