Default Re: I\'ve Got Mumps

I had the Mumps in February. Like you I've been vaccinated twice.

Luckily I had an EXTREMELY mild case (slight headache, tender throat). This meant that 1) I didn't have to go to my crappy job for four days; and 2) I stayed on my butt and watched movies all day and played poker all evening.

If I could arrange to get the Mumps in that fashion once a year, I absolutely would.

P.S. I think that it was pretty cool to have an incredibly contagious disease prefaced by an article. Saying "I've got "THE Mumps"' beats the hell out of saying 'I've got indigestion'.

Should I be worried, I've had a sore throat and a headache for 2 days, and I can't remember the last time I had a headache.
