I'm stressed!

This week has seemed particularily stressful for some reason. No matter how hard I try, work is close to unbearable. I can't keep up with my schedule and, overall, my patients seem to be more difficult. Despite the workload being less than previous weeks, I just can't recover after anything unpredictable happens. I don't know if it is the expanding space is throwing me off or what. I really just can't wait for the weekend. Saturday is a trip to Magic Mountain before heading to LA to visit Alan Saturday night and Sunday. I'm already dreading work on Monday. Hopefully the tides with turn by then.

Who said cats rule the world?

I am currently highly entertained by my cat. She keeps attacking her ball of string and tangling herself in it so badly that I have to repeatedly untangle her from it. She somehow gets it tangled around her belly so that when she takes off running not only does the string follow her and freak her out, but the floor is slippery so she falls and/or skids too. Good times.

“I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired.” ~Fannie Lou Hamer

It's 6:12 AM....I've been up since 5. I'm tired, sick, and because of my cough and sinus congestion and I couldn't fall back to sleep. This sucks. I have a bday party/dinner to attend in less than 12 hours. I still have to get gifts and make desserts. Today is going to be hell.

"Virus" is a Latin word used by doctors to mean, "Your guess is as good as mine”

So today is day 2 of staying home sick from work. It's a new record though...this is my first official sickness of the flu season. Last year I was sick at least 3 or 4 times by this time of the year. Although I feel significantly better from yesterday, I tried to get ready for work and it was just all over. My body has been in so much distress over the last 24+ hours, that it rebelled against me and I had to call in. On a positive note, I was hungry this morning for the first time since dinner on Wednesday night! Yay! No more force feeding myself! I am currently eating breakfast, then will return to bed. Hopefully tomorrow I will be feeling much more normal.
