While my intention is to write everyday, yesterday I cut the blog short due to how tired I was feeling. Today, I know why. The cold which seems to have struck nearly everyone around me got to me this morning. I woke up with a sore spot on the back of my throat. Knowing everyone else's experience, I took a Zicam (which has proven effective for me) before going to work.
As the day wore on, my throat got worse and worse to the point that I couldn't raise my voice to my students (it turns out slapping a clipboard on a table catching people's attention). I went to Trevor's last concert (the Northwest Junior High Spring Collage Concert) and found myself with the sniffles. Two hours later, my snot has turned to pea-soup color and consistency.
I now have the full-blown sinus headache and plan on heading to bed right when I finish this post. Tomorrow is a light day at school for me, but my AP students have their test so I want to be there in case there are any hiccups (and to hear the accounts of their experiences).
I hate feeling sick in the spring or summer. I hope I'm more energetic tomorrow for Katrina's birthday.
