The Eventual

Well, I can report that the inevitable has finally occurred. It took four days. My throat hurts and I have a sunburn. The throat is even more unavoidable. One of the kids who likes to sit on my lap frequently coughs in my face. She has a cough that should be cause her lungs to fly out of her body. It's pretty awful. As far as I know, her lungs are still exactly where they should be. I'm going to have to bring sunscreen and a hat to work tomorrow. I burn too easily to ignore such basic precautions. The fact that I even tried makes me want to beat my head against a wall shouting: stupid! stupid! stupid! On the bright side, I rocked at diaper changing. No one got hurt! Yay!

See that? Hasn't happened yet.

Anyway, in light of my pending disease, I'm going to medicate and go to bed early in the hopes of nipping it in the bud. Not likely, but I'm trying to be positive.

Lauren.
