I almost made it
Categories: Personal
Three weeks to go in the semester and I was all but counting on finishing things up without getting sick. The past two semesters I've got some cold/flu thing at some point and I was hoping to avoid it this semester. Just when it looked like I was going to make it, it hit me yesterday around lunch. You can feel it happening, the illness crawling over and in you, and are powerless to do anything about it. It's just a head cold, but it made my sleep miserable and is making it hard to grade this giant stack of research papers on my desk. So I am sucking on a Cold-Eze. dinking lots of water (I probably drank two liters yesterday), and taking ibuprofin. I just need to figure out how not to get sick in the first place.
Did see the new James Bond movie on Saturday with Dad and Sarah. Lots of fun -- the best Bond in a long time.
