i have the bubonic plague.
i don't think i'm ever going to feel well. never again will i be able to breathe through my nose. never again will i be able to sleep through the night. never again will my sinuses not pound all day.
sigh...
and the really great thing is that i get to experience all this while attempting to teach 16-year-olds about the social effects of 1970s political movements.
why do i not take a sick day? because i have learned one of the True Facts of Teaching: it is far more pleasant to go to school feeling like you've been hit by a truck than it is to deal with the nuclear fallout that occurs after surrendering your classes to a substitute for an entire day. particularly two weeks before the state tests.

About Me
- laura
- a 27 year old with two degrees in history, a fiance, a military commission, and more than her fair share of neuroses. i've figured out what i'm doing with the rest of my life, but getting the government to agree with me is going to be the trick.
