Replying to Strept throat or possibly tonsilitis has ruined my ski vacation

so today I was supposed to drive up to my uncles new "lake/ski house" its about an hour from farmington, maine, so just about halfway between sugarloaf and sunday river. The plan was to spend the whole week up there skiing the two resorts (whichever looked better for weather on the particular day).

However, yesterday I started having this real sore throat, hurt really bad everytime I swallowed. Woke up this morning and it was like 10 times worse, there was a coating of mucasy shit in the back of my throat that made it really hard to talk or swallow, and it all hurt pretty good. so I showed my mom and she took one look with a flashlight and said i have either strept or tonsilitis.

long story short:
woke up with a throat infection, was supposed to go skiing for a week starting today, instead I get to stay home while everyone else goes up, then go to the doctor tommorow and try and get meds. then I get to either wait some more to heal some, or drive up myself to the house and heal up there. at least they got ps3 with cod n shit up there.
