Doesn’t This Thing Ever Leave?

Remember that cold that I was dealing with a week ago? It got better. For about three days. And today, I am dying. I’m coughing my brains out, my nose is alternately congested and runny, my throat is sore, I’m utterly exhausted, and I can barely keep my eyes open. I think I was ready… Read More Doesn’t This Thing Ever Leave?

That Went Well

Yesterday I mentioned that I needed some time management skills with our radio station’s manager, and she gave me some advice that I took to heart. Her recommendation was to use an Android app that has, among other features, a 20/10 timer. When that’s activated, it will count down 20 minutes for you to do… Read More That Went Well

Foolish Mistake

So yesterday I went to my algebra instructor to ask about the problem that basically had me losing a day’s worth of study to slightly irrational thoughts. He gladly welcomed me into his office, and I showed him the problem that I was having. We went through it together, and I couldn’t understand why I… Read More Foolish Mistake

Posting From Bed

I have a splitting headache all of a sudden and that’s making me more tired than I already am, so I’m writing just long enough to say that I’ll see you guys later.

Perfect Storm

Right now I’m in a headspace that I haven’t been in for some time. For starters, today has been spent unsuccessfully fighting a persistent, nagging, unproductive cough left over from the cold. I feel constantly just on the edge of a coughing fit that makes me dizzy and causes pain in my right shoulder during… Read More Perfect Storm

Back to School

After taking off the weekend to recover from my cold, I dove back into schoolwork with both feet today. Algebra class went well, and even let out a little early, but for the first time I could not understand what was being covered in class. I’m chalking that up to the fast pace of the… Read More Back to School

Somewhat Back to Normal

Today I only had nagging cold symptoms, nothing bad, and I managed to catch a few naps during the day – probably good that I did, since I was up at 4:30 am for absolutely no reason whatsoever. It was a productive day. My wife and I split the workload to get a lot of… Read More Somewhat Back to Normal

From Patient to Nurse and Back Again

I still have a cold. I’ve spent the day in and out of bed, although I was largely symptom-free until later in the evening. Which is good, because I’ve had to take care of my wife, who had to have a tooth pulled this morning. I like playing nursemaid to her, although she’s not fond… Read More From Patient to Nurse and Back Again

Not Much Progress

Once again, the day’s basically been lost to the cold. I haven’t really accomplished much of anything today except rest, and even that was sporadic. This is where I’d usually share some wisdom or insight that I have about life in general, and here is tonight’s tidbit. Don’t catch cold. I’m going to medicate myself… Read More Not Much Progress

Cold Report

The cold is getting worse. I feel mostly fine, just run down – but my voice is completely gone. I couldn’t do my radio show tonight because of it. I should have spent more time in bed today, although I didn’t really do that much today, so technically I took it easy. But I think… Read More Cold Report
