I've heard that Airborn Allergies in general have been particularly bad this year, and that people who don't usually have allergy problems have been feeling the effects... that was one of the Possible Explanations the doctors gave me, too. Allergies. But now that the antibiotics appear to be reducing the pain and swelling but leaving a small stinging bit, I suspect I got a scrape on my throat from some errant bit of food, and then that scrape got infected. That's my I'm-not-a-doctor-but-I'm-imaginarily-married-to-someone-who-plays-one-on-TV diagnosis.
And as for that, GO CARL. You GIVE the credit where credit is due!
I still haven't gotten hold of Year of the Griffin, so I'll reserve judgement. Though, Derk WAS my favorite character. And probably my only fault with the book was all me, but for some reason I had the WORST time visualizing anthropomorphic griffins. My inner movie just kind of BLURRED OVER all those characters.
