Kristin - my guess is that they want you to be able to teach long term, and will figure out a way to give you the rest you need now. Feel better.
Illyria: Wesley's dead. I'm feeling grief for him. I can't seem to control it. I wish to do more violence. Spike: Well, wishes just happen to be horses today.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Hmm, all this talk of hair coloring makes me want to play with my color again. But I do like my darker brown now that it's toned down a bit. That said, the greys are starting to peek out at me, might be time to color it anyways.

Kristin, you can't work with pneumonia, I'm sure your principal must know that.

Our wings are not tired.
Kristin, listen to the hivemind.
My uncle landed in the hospital for 10 days last year with pneumonia. And add to that his absence of health insurance (he quit his well-paying job to go back to college and graduates next month!), and it was a $30k illness.
You can't work with pneumonia. Are you salaried? If so, you stay home and they can't doc ya. Although now that I think about it, you have a teacher's union right? Or does that change with private schools?
Damn. Don't answer any of my questions - I am far too curious and you need and deserve rest. I am SO sorry that you are so sick.
Thanks!! I hope so. They received over 100 resumes and I was already on the list before I called! She said I must have read her mind!
I am so excited for you!

Ooof. So, last week, we had a trainer who was pretty good, really, about the fact that we were all very experienced and didn't want to have to get the super basic parts of the training. Just the "how do we do it differently here than at some places".
This week, a different trainer. And OMG, my class may kill her before we're done. YEEESH. Of course, the trainer from last week told her we're very vocal and interactive....and then we were so annoyed by teh new woman that we sat there and stonily stared at her all morning. Eesh.

Kristin, please do not overtax yourself with pneumonia. I know this may mean unpaid leave, but... ...it's pneumonia.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Betsy had pneumonia a couple of years ago, I think, and it's no joke.

The status is NOT quo.
Talked to the boss. She's being very nice. I don't know if I'll be docked or not, but she definitely doesn't expect me to come in when I'm this sick. So it's looking like I may be back on Thursday. Maybe.
Laga, thanks, but you and ND should still get together. My sick doesn't need to hold you two back.
