Good news! I had my recheck with my internal medicine doctor, and she is very optimistic that the anti-fungal pills are working! Although I’m still honking like a goose, it isn’t as often. And the nose cannon is also firing less. More importantly the ooze from my nose is more often clear than a mucus […]
Well this is awkward. Has anyone seen my reindeer? He answers to the name of Rudolph, and may or may not be the actual reindeer who helps Santa. That is one of a few theories as to why he has gone missing from my home. Oh deer, oops I mean oh dear, let me explain… […]
