Feeling ill

Yesterday I woke with a slightly sore throat, as the day drug on it only got worse. Still I mustered up the energy to drive the hour and a half drive to my mothers. She fixed me lunch and cut my hair and only nagged me slightly. She really really wants to give me highlights and is just positively upset that I'm already going gray at 26. Frankly I hardly mind. I shaved my head a few years ago in an effort to wipe the slate clean and I'm not about to start dumping chemicals on my head now.

Today I woke with pretty bad congestion in my right nasal passage. My throat is starting to feel better but that doesn't mean the rest of me is falling in line. Outside of my general medication and daily vitamins I knocked back some ibuprofen and that seems to have helped a little bit.

My efforts to get back into writing have thus far failed to pan out. I did begin to reorganize my folders so its a little easier to find the things I'm looking for and I'm working on getting my notes in order. That's really about the closest thing to success I've had.

Derrick who has been out of town for the last week comes back tonight which will be nice, I certainty missed him. Not that I'll get to see him till tomorrow. Oh well. I should get some rest.
