loracs | I'm Sick

Not the way

dbubley is sick, but sick enough with ear aches and a sore throat that I didn't sleep much last night. I've called in sick, which I rarely do, but I just feel so tired and when my ears hurt, I have a hard time concentrating.

It's rainy and cold here today and the forecast calls for rain most of the week. We went to see "Golden Compass" yesterday, I figured about halfway through the movie I was getting sick. I've not read the book; I enjoyed the movie, although it was apparent the story is much, much more complicated than they could fit in 2 hours of screen time. Now I want to read the books. My “books to read” list is getting impossibly long. Bad news: there’s not enough years of life left to read them all, esp. since more are added each day! Good news: I’ll always have a book to read. Maybe after a couple of hours of sleep, I’ll be able to concentrate enough to read. There is a silver lining to this sick business.

May any readers today have a better day than our household is having.

EDIT: Since I wrote that last sentence, I must say our household is having a WONDERFUL day because of some WONDERFUL, STUPENDOUS,INCREDIBLE GOOD news;

serenejournal's mom is cured and going home from the hospital real soon!!!!
