My mother has diagnosed me with a sinus infection, over the phone, and thinks I should go to the student health center and get antibiotics. I know that they wouldn't give antibiotics for stuffed-up sinuses with no fever or other symptoms, and mostly, I just want to rest, and not get dressed and walk six blocks to the student health center just to be told to rest. I have a feeling that my mom will keep calling me about this one, though.
They should film that story and show it every Christmas.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I want to mention again the incredible show I saw last night. It was a very buffista evening. The only problem was the lax attitude towards smoking. I enjoyed it in the moment, it gave the evening a nostalgic quall and the singer used his tiparillo to great effect. But today I was hacking on the way to work and now I'm sitting here feeling like I smoked half a pack last night. Still, totally worth it and I am going back next time I don't have to open on a Monday.

Eh, I'd tell her you went to the doctor and they prescribed rest and hot liquids. It's not like she's going to call them to verify.

oof. That would be a tough call for me. Which is worse, dragging my ass out of bed or fibbing to my mom? I might tell her I really need to sleep and then turn the phone off.

Eh. I can deal with her calling me about it. It's not like she can force me to get dressed and go to student health.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Toddson, that's a lovely dress, but I worry about it being not breathable enough.
I just know I wasn't as coherent and consistent as I should have been
If he loves Tolkien, that shouldn't be a problem, Shir.
Hil, you should definitely get the rest your body is asking for. But one advantage of going in to the health center would be having your complaint on record for when it gets worse.

Laga, I'm sorry you are suffering from after effects from that wonderful show!

thanks for the sympathy. Mostly I wish I were more tolerant of smoke. I felt it was being used in a legitimate artistic capacity to enhance the show. Too bad it's poison.
