Monday, August 25th (tomorrow), begins a new chapter in my life. I will start a new job in a new town. As I type this, I've already moved to the new town, which is still located in the same state, but is more centrally located. The company is of a corporate nature, which is what I was wanting to move to. I was tired of retail. I am also moving to salary from hourly, which will be an interesting change.

The only thing that will mar this new chapter is this sickness that I picked up some time ago. About 2 weeks ago, it all started with a sore throat and cough, which made me think it was nothing more than a cold. Well, last week, my sore throat went away, but the coughing got worse. In the midst of moving, and while I still had insurance, this past Friday I went to the doctor's office. After a chest X-Ray and blood test, it turned out I had contracted "Walking Pneumonia," which is a milder form of regular pneumonia. Mild enough that most people don't know they have it as the symptoms are very much like a cold or the flu. And the incubation period is 15-25 days, so who knows where I got it. The good news is I have been given medicine to help with it, but it had me on edge, especially since the new job starts tomorrow.

Anyway, wish me luck!
