im not surprised either…I have the worst fucking luck of anybody I know. Ah well. Shit happens. Honestly…I could use the rest. I’ve been going every fucking day non stop for a few months now and frankly im getting hella burnt out. Thats why I’m rarly on anymore. Between working at Darian Lake, landscaping with my dad, workin on the car/truck, doing shit with the gf, and the fire co…I haven’t had a day to just relax in months. I just wish it was under different circomstances that I get the time off…like a vacation or something lol. ---

Depending on the type of pneumonia you got… community acquired pneumonia is mainly caused by the bacteria Streptococcus pneumoniae (I’m studying this bug as a graduate student). Even though there are two vaccines out, there’s still a 5-15% colonization (where you don’t even know you have it, and your body clears it over time) in the adult populace at any time. Children have up to 50% colonization rate depending on the age group… with children under 5 being the most colonized. Usually only children, elderly and immune-compromised people may get disease after being colonized. You can probably thank your burned out condition for compromising your immune system. Hopefully the antibiotics will kick it in the ass. ---

I got a pretty bad cold going. I thought it was just a sore throat but today the right side of my head is all congested and I feel worse than I did when I thought I was as sick as I could get. Doh! ---

wtf. I have been sick since 2 days after I got home from Italy. I thought it was just me getting adult onset allergies but turned into a 2 week long head cold. So far all I have left is a runny nose that wont go away with a mild cough. [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/official-anyone-else-sick-thread/20782.md?page=8)
