Don't get sick!!! I slept in my car too when I used to drive all over and had to sleep or I'd crash my car from eyes closing (and this was when people were a but more sane, but even then I was hoping no one saw a single young woman alseep in a car!)... I used to be in the music business and I would follow one of the artists to different cities but I was not on the tour bus (damn!) so I drove all over. Mind you, this was before I had a child -- now I drive all over but in the same direction back and forth, back and forth, back and forth... you get the idea. =)

I'll let you know about happpy hour guy, hahah. Tomorrow when I am more awake and not sweating (I had a heat pack on my neck and fleece pj's on so now I am sweating bullets!)

I think my health was a bit ragged with this weather (I have been fighting a sore throat since before he was sick!) and trying to make sure he had what he needed. Medical stress not helping, but Monday night after I got home from my "date" I felt kinda yucky and by 9pm I knew I was sick. I think it was a matter of time, so many are ill that I know and someone was doing work in the house who was getting the flu so THAT didn't help. I don't have the fever sickness, just ears and throat (congestion too).... my usual. I did get some moist drops which helped my ears but my throat burns (and I am breathing through my mouth so that doesn't help!)

I'm a mess.. LOL

I won't have surgery if I am not 100%, last thing I need is a full blown surgery if my immue system is not strong. *So need a vacation!*

So my son's teacher emails me the class work he missed and what he needs to do this week. Now he did everything he needed to do last week BUT a suppplemental packet to go along with his book. I figured he'd have to make it up, which he does, but now he needs to read 5 more chapters in this book AND do the pages in the packet for the new chapters so now he has 11 chapters to get through because there is a quiz next week. SERIOUSLY? Plus he has to finish a book for his outside reading project and complete 5 pages of questions (MLA format) and then he has to start on his research paper which requires a full bibliography and thesis attached to it (no lie!) Now she says he has an extra credit project he can do.... because this wasn't enough work (!!!) and if he reads the book and does the questionaire he can do a paper on how the book is different than the movie, but if the questionaire is not 100% complete the 2nd part (movie vs book) is out. Oh, this is ONE class for 10/1th graders!

I replied maybe he can get to the book and the questionaire but he will not be watching the movie and adding another paper to his pile of work. I will be lucky if he gets through the next 5 chapters and the packet for the quiz, let alone 100 other things to do. And since he was sick we lost a whole week.... so I am like whatever. I call uncle.... LOL

OKay I have taken enough of your time. I'll fill ya in on the rest if my life later.... =)
