A Night In The ER

This week was a tough one for me. I got very sick for a couple of days and thought I had the flu. After 3 days of feeling like shit I noticed I had a giant red mark on my left ribcage that looked like some sort of bite. It was the size of my fist. Apparently the problem was a skin and tissue infection called cellulitis. I went to the emergency room where they hooked me up to an IV and did some blood work. If not treated, cellulitis can spread and eventually lead to death. It's good that I went to the hospital when I did. The infection hadn't reached my blood stream, and I was given antibiotics to treat it.

In other news, there is no home game this week due to a lack of available players. Last week I was up a measly $18, but I'm up almost $400 overall. The online bankroll is being rebuilt and sits at $75, while the live bankroll is at almost $3300. Hopefully there will be a game next week and I'll have something interesting to post. Until then...
