You know what’s fun?

Sitting in the warm bed and typing on my laptop.

You know what’s more fun?

IMing Yoshi who is in the office and hearing the computer go “BING!” when an IM goes through.

It’s also fun to type “BING!” everytime you hear the “BING!” go off until Yoshi finally logs off and comes to bed.

Now it’s time for bed so I have to put my computer away.

Today is Epiphany.

I just got an email from an old friend who remembers that it’s my day.

To those of you who remember me as epiphany: Man, are you OLD!

:P

Being sick sucks. Luckily I’m much better now.

I’m not quite 100% but I feel a heck of a lot better today than I have for the last couple of days.

This cold thing really kicked my butt and I’m glad it’s only taken me a couple of days to get over it. Tomorrow I go back to work. Bleh.

Unfortunately, my being Ms Sicky all weekend has gotten in the way of my many weekend plans which included seeing Teebubble & JeniJeniJeni, going back to OC to visit my Mom, and of course to visit my Grandma (which I absolutely won’t do until I am germless).

I also had crapload of paperwork to do, some of which I made a dent in yesterday, but most of which is still piled on my desk. I thought about working on it today, but lying in bed and keeping warm sounded more appealing… so guess what I’m doing now?

Tonight we are supposed to have dinner with L & S which is great because I haven’t seen either of them in ages.

Does that mean I actually have to leave the house then?

Day 2 of feeling like crap.

With the exception of running out to the post office today, I have mostly been in bed all day.

I also spent a few hours attempting to pay bills and cleaning off my desk.

I played with my Nintendo DS (his name is DSten, thankyouverymuch) so much that the battery ran out.

I hate being sick.

Sick day.

I hate being sick.

Hate it.

The only good thing is that I have an excuse to stay in bed all day with my laptop since I still have work to do.

I want to be better NOW.

I am a mess and going to bed.

Today was my first day back at the office after a long weekend of fun and travel. Boy, was it hard to go back.

The day started with my trying to leave the house and finding out that my car battery had died since I hadn’t moved my car in two weeks. And because I’m so awesome like that, I stole Yoshi’s car and took it to work, effectively leaving Yoshi stranded at home.

After an hour-long conference call where I got debriefed on everything I had missed, I started to catch up on some paperwork sitting on my desk.

At some point during the day, I got a message from a former classmate who asked me if I was going to see him in class tonight. “Oh crap!” I thought! “Classes start tonight!?!?”

To be fair, I was technically enrolled in a class in OC that starts next week. However, there is a chance that I needed to take the class on Thursday nights (and that meant getting to class tonight). After much deliberation and also cajoling of my counselor (who has already changed my schedule approximately 5 times already in the last 3 weeks), I enrolled in a class in WLA for Thursday nights.

That meant I pretty much had to take off early from work, go home and get my laptop, and then head across town to get to class on time. Class was not too painful, but I realized that I was started to feel stuffed up and the drugs (Yay, Day-Quil) I had taken earlier were wearing off. I started feeling like my head was really heavy and the thoughts were getting stuck somewhere between my brain and my mouth. So I tried to shut my trap.

Anyway, by the time class was over and I had to drive home, I realized I really am getting sick. I called Dave to check in on him and was glad to have his verbal company with me on my drive home. It was hard to keep my head straight.

Anyway, I got home and took more drugs (Yay, Ny-Quil!), took a hot shower (which cleared my sinuses), and then proceeded to poke myself in the left eye with my glasses while trying to put them on.

Ow.

I think it’s time for bed now.

Happy 2008!

Happy New Year!  It's 2008!

This picture was actually taken on December 30, 2007 in San Jose at Yoshi’s Mom’s place. I was lying in bed and goofing around with the camera.
