Parasite update.

I was at dinner with a ton of people the other weekend, and someone's friend was a 2nd-year med school student.

When the parasite that I had had got brought, he asked me a lot of questions, including how it affected me, and I told him that it was a head-trip to find out that I had these two 2-cm worms living in my body.

"Is that really so different from having a sore throat?", he was like. "An infection is foreign organisms too."

He also could not believe that when I told the local black post lady about my parasite, that she was like, "Whoo-whee, I am so glad that they shipped us over here."

My bet is that at some point he repeats that story.
