My Head Is Clear
For the first time in three days, I am seeing the world clearly and not through some kind of light mist. Please let this be the turning point of this cold. I really need to be getting better now.
Last night, I was in bed by 9:30, which is three hours earlier than normal. I dragged three couch cushions into bed with me, two for behind my pillow and one for under my knees. The cats loooooved it. And I slept hard for most of the night. I think I woke up once or twice to cough, but that was it.
Oh pleeeeeeese let me be getting better now. I've been asked to the professor appreciation dinner at the Tri-Delt house tomorrow night and I'd really like to go. I'd also like to be able to start thinking clearly enough to, you know, grade papers, plan classes, that kind of thing. Though for the most part, I did this very cleverly. I planned the semester so that the students are doing more of the work in class at this point and I'm doing less of it. So that's helpful. Still, I've got a stack of grading about six miles high that I must deal with. I didn't make a dent in it this weekend. Too busy staring at the walls.
Dave just walked through the living room and remarked on how much better I look today. So that's good. It's not just me wishing myself into thinking I'm better.
