Sweat & (Outside of) the City

The ultimate car driver has RETURNED from the big city to a delightful land where she can tool around in Flanders, the 2004 Civic. That's right, I'm on Long Island.

Long Island--I Don't Have the Accent Yet

yo yo yo

guess who's sick again?
yep
i have another freakin' cold
i'm an absolute mess
it's RA training and i'm hacking up a lung
great way to make a first impression

anyway, this too shall pass
(and probably be replaced with the bubonic plague)

tonight i meet my new RAs
well, about half of them
looooong story that i don't care to repeat

i am very pleased to be out of NYC
so far, everyone i've met at SBU has been a delight
great people and great department

and my new car is named flanders
you can expect a picture soon

carry on...

2007 is Off to a Sucky Start...

it's official
i'm dying
now that the cold has wrapped up
i have acquired some sort of stomach bug
so i feel like my stomach is on an evil roller coaster ride
and i've got chills, fever, and aches
oh my
this has moved from the realm of
"damn, what a crappy way to spend your holiday week"
to "how the hell am i going to get everything done in the next 4 days
when i can't sit up for more than 2 minutes??"
having the freakin' laptop on me has
set off a magical wave of nausea

and now i need to figure out how to get a transfusion
this sucks

but, i did buy a car, so that's a good thing
and i'm really glad i didn't throw up in it
