Second Test.

No followers are showing up.  Those of you who said you are following, did you get a notice of this? 

This is a test. This is only a test.

Check. Check.  One, two, three.  Check.

Is this thing on?

If you can read this, then perhaps I am actually as smart as a fifth grader.  In a few weeks, I hope to use this site to chronicle our trip to India.  I would like to get in a little practice beforehand though, so I'll make a post or two about preparing for our trip, just to get my feet wet.

Since I named the blog "The Quinine Chronicles" (an apropos suggestion from my friend Jane, thank you Jane), I thought I would post a photo of our anti-malaria meds to practice posting photos.  

I carefully took the meds out of the fridge, and tried to photograph quickly, as they are supposed to remain cold.  And just now I realized that the meds I photographed are not an anti-malarial drug (that's what we'll start next week) but rather the typhoid drug Vivotif.  So many prophylactics, it's hard to keep them straight!

Thanks for joining me here.  I feel a bit silly about blogging, and I'm not sure why, but I'm committed to give it a go.
