So Dewey and I have been vegging on the couch for nearly three hours, watching MTV Real World/Road Rules Inferno. Yes, I can hear myself getting dumber.

But we've seen this commercial for Valtrex at least 12 times. Apparently, Valtrex is used to treat something called "genital herpes."

The commercials show attractive young thiry-something couples in various outdoor settings - rafting, hiking, horseback riding, lake canoeing, camping, fishing in the Rockies...all the time smiling and laughing and holding each other close.

Looks fun! If that's what "living with genital herpes" is all about, then count me in. The commercial talks about controlling herpes outbreaks. Outbreaks of fun, I say.

Does anyone know where I could find me some herpes?

(Alright, alright - I'll stop.)
