So instead of sitting in class taking notes and learning, I am sitting at home sneezing, coughing, hurting, and sweating....I've only had the flu a handful of times, but it's completely knocked me on my ass each time. If I didn't HAVE to go to work, I would have called in sick the last two days. Going to class, which is something I enjoy, has fallen by the wayside because of this sickness. Sleep has been even more elusive than usual, since all I do is shiver or sweat when under the covers.
I miss the days when I could just take some cough syrup with codeine and completely sleep through the flu.

2009
Happy New Year. Hope everyone is enjoying national hangover day.
A new year is always cause for resolutions, and while I try not to get caught up in all that too much....it's not a bad idea. Wanting to do something more or better in your life is a wonderful thing....regardless of how it works out practically. You will never do any of these things if you don't try, so trying it even for a week or two is a lot better than nothing. Nowadays I kinda view resolutions as a freeroll, and ANYone can tell you that I love me some freerolls.
So the resolutions I have are kind of simple. Going back to last year's resolutions, here, I am continuing with my pic-a-day thing. I successfully completed my task of taking at least one picture every day of 2008, and will probably now continue that until I am unable to take pictures anymore. I'll try to post more of the pics here, and more likely on facebook, but I make no promises about posting the pics. Facebook is the better way for me to go with the pics because I'm honestly not comfortable posting pics of myself here where anybody and their mother can see them and save them.
As for the other resolution I tried last year, watching and reviewing the top 52 movies as voted by users on the IMDB top 250, I'm not going to try that exactly again....but I will be making an attempt to see as many of the top 50 that I haven't seen yet.
New to this year is a weight one. I've done the weight loss thing a few times over the years with mixed success. This time it is clear that I need to do more to keep myself in check. I'm going to start posting my weight here pretty regularly as a way to keep tabs on myself and hold myself accountable. I hit 244 a couple weeks ago. The most I have ever weighed in my life. 240 was always that magical number that I would never let myself hit....until it happened. Now I'm dropping it and will try and make each 10 lb increment my new magic number as I drop below it. I'm currently at 238 and working my way down to 230.
Now it's time to be lazy while I still allow myself to be. Going to check and see if Full Tilt is still giving away the 3x points today and watch the NHL winter classic.
