Blahhhk

So I have gone and caught myself a nasty summer cold. Great timing. :(
I am into day three of the cold and it is starting to affect my sleep, which in turn affects my concentration, and then, of course, hinders my studying. Not a good sign. This damn cold could mean the difference between passing and failing. I can tell my concentration isn't as good as it usually is when I have to read a simple math question 2 or 3 times. It is even harder when trying to do the verbal questions. Just trying to understand what the sentence or paragraph is talking about it a difficult task.

I guess I just have to plug through, studying as much as a I can before completely powering out, and try to get lots of rest. Though this cold has been waking me up in the night, and it is difficult to fall back to sleep when I have multiple choice math problems running through my head.

I am not quite sure why I am at work today. As my co-worker said, "why are you here today?", when I walked in and responded to 'how are you today?' with 'sick, tired and bitchy.' "The principle, I suppose", was my response. "Principle, NOW?", she says. Yeah, I know it doesn't make a lot of sense. Well, with my wanting to get away from this job/organization and being slightly ticked off that they continue to pass me over for jobs, even those in your own department because you are above the position, AND hoping to not be around here much longer, it doesn't really make a lot of sense that I would come to work soley for the principle of being at work, especially when I am legtimately sick. (k, that was a run-on sentence)

I guess my rational for coming in is that, I have a doctor's appointment later today, and have to take my gramma shopping and I wouldn't want anyone from work to see me out after I had called in sick for work. What would they think? Sounds dumb, I know. I really shouldn't care, and I don't, so again, I question my being here today.

I likely won't get any work done today. Then again I don't have much work to do. I am trying to get all of my projects finished, done, completed, off my desk - so that in case I am gone I haven't left my co-workers which a bunch of work. I am already likely screwing up the training schedule by me leaving - that is enough stress for them.

Bad Cold! Go Away!
