Con crud

I decided that since I felt so tired last night, I wouldn't do anything useful after I got home from the grocery store (cold medicine run). Lazing about waiting for Mythbusters to come on, I decided I'd lie down a little bit about 7. Mom phoned at 7:45 and I immediately fell asleep again, waking up at 3. Decided maybe I ought to get out of my clothes and put a nightgown on, read Mushishi 5, fell asleep again until the alarm rang at 7.

And I'm still tired. At work, since the rest of the cold symptoms are mild and I don't have a whole lot of sick leave at the moment, although I expect there's a good chance I'll be out tomorrow if I get worse. I'm supposed to work on Saturday, and it's awkward to get sick this moment as I'm taking a Saturday art class this semester that pretty much kills my ability to trade Saturdays with anyone else. Blarg.

Oh dear lord, no. XD Mom was a teacher and therefore had immunity from all the bugs, as she was exposed to them constantly, and had no sympathy for me when *I* got colds.

A few years after she retired, when her immune system had scaled back a bit, she got a bad cold and complained to me on the phone and I told her I had NO SYMPATHY! :D

Hahahaha. But all this talk of colds has me craving 7up.
