Broken Record

I hate to sound like a broken record, but I've been sick all week. I finally broke down on Wed. and went to the doctor. He told me I have bronchitis and placed me on antibiotics. While the antibiotics have helped with my lung congestion, I have fought nausea and vomiting all week. I couldn't cancel classes as Friday was a scheduled furlough day and I couldn't afford missing any classes. On Thursday, during Principles of Psychology I had to excuse myself mid-class, run to my office (because the downstairs bathrooms are closed for remodeling), and in the nick of time grab my trash can (which has a plastic liner) and emptied the contents of my stomach. I returned to class, a little shaky, but continued on with the class. I know this sounds hardcore, but I have little choice in the matter. I know that my inability to cancel classes due to illness has contributed to how long it is taking me to recover from this horrid virus. Today is Sunday and I'm grateful that I have now turned a corner (knock on wood) and am beginning to feel more like myself. Just in time for a full week of classes. I pray that I don't have any further relapses as I think I've more than paid my dues!
