I hate being sick

I only get sick once or twice a year, but when I do, I get really sick. On Tuesday, my throat started hurting. On Wednesday, I started to lose my voice. I figured with Thursday and Friday off work, I would have time to heal up before I had to be at work this morning. Nope. It only got worse. I ended up leaving work today after only being there 3 - 3 1/2 haurs. You just can't work retail when you are contagious. They frown upon that for some reason. Go figure. I guess it works out for the best, though. I slept most of the day (only after Dom brought me some hot tea and helped make me some Chicken Noodle soup!), and Jon is covering my cashier shift tomorrow so I can do the same then. HOPEFULLY, I will actually be good to go by Monday. If I'm still feeling bad tomorrow, I'm gonna try to get a doctor's appointment on campus for Monday. But I am hoping that won't be necessary. We shall see.

Maybe I'll be able to restart my Marathon Pre-Training this week. I was ready to this week, but that whole being sick put a hamper on things. I'm starting to really get excited about qualifying for the Boston Marathon. I really think I can do it, I'll just have to train hard. I know I am physically capable of qualifying. I just have to do it. :-)

Oh yeah! And apparantly Viet is back in NRH for the week. I may have to try to make it back at some point so I can see him. It's been way too long. I don't know that I can get next Sunday off for Father's Day, so it wouldn't hurt to see the family then, either. You know. As a "while I'm here" kind of thing. It's just family. :-P
