Sick Day


Tie-dye T-shirt that's about 3 sizes too big: gift from a student who made it in Chem class
Plaid pants: Target
Bad posture: I blame college.

This is what I looked like for most of the day. I woke up this morning feeling pretty crappy, but I got dressed and made up and went to work anyway because I wake up too late to call out. Besides, I figured I could tough it out.

Ha.

I started walking down the treacherous hill from the upper parking lot to the school, and started feeling crazy dizzy. I managed to make it to my classroom and collapse in my chair and tried to start my normal morning routine of checking email and getting ready for first period, but I was shaking and sweating and generally feeling light headed. Thank God I share a classroom.

Let's just say, I didn't even make it to first period. I called B. who rode his bike over and picked me up to take me home where I sat in bed and watched the backlog on my Hulu queue all day long.

Every time I got out of bed, I thought I was going to pass out, so I did a whole lot of nothing. I still feel pretty crappy, despite my fabulous hair. For the record, I did manage to put together a pretty fabulous outfit today, which there are no pictures of because I couldn't handle it. I guess I'll have to try it out another day.


Here's hoping I'll be feeling better tomorrow because we have a wedding to go to and we're expecting B.'s parents, older sister, and two nephews this weekend. Being sick on a Friday is no fun, but being sick while trying to entertain house guests? Say a prayer for me...

On the upside: my hair rocks!

Also, we're having a summer sale on etsy. Mostly in celebration of getting our first showcase and my birthday (coming up on June 4th, if you'd like to mark your calendars).
