Quickie

My mind and my body hurts.

I'm almost over being sick, but I injured my back and have been taking pills for it. My doctor wants me to go to physio, but I keep forgetting to make an appointment. If it's not one thing, it's the other around here!

I just finished assignment #9 for the class of death. For this class we submit most of our work online to this instant grader which will tell us if we're right or wrong. We can do that as many times as we want, before submitting it to our prof to be graded. It's pretty sweet, but soooooo annoying at the same time. I really hate it when I get an answer (and everything checks out) only to find out when I submit it that although it is technically correct, it is not the answer they were looking for and therefore wrong. It makes me want to throw things.

I have my first midterm tomorrow and I am totally unprepared. And of course instead of studying I am online writing on here! BAD ERICA! Off to study...

Sick Days

I am sick.

Just before work on Wednesday, my muscles started aching but otherwise I was fine. By the end of work I was ready to crawl into my bed and never move again. I dragged myself to class on Thursday, mainly because I had to hand in an assignment. I have barely left my bed/the couch since. I haven't felt this awful in years. I had to call into work all weekend. By the way one of my managers SUCK. I called to tell her I wasn't coming in and she asked me if I had gotten anybody to fill my shift. Uh, no. Does this happen at other people's work? Having to find your own replacement when you phone in sick? I understand that maybe if I was the president or something, I should find somebody to cover me, but honestly. It's a minimum wage job. She's lucky I phoned in at all! Finally, she said she would fill it but she sounded really annoyed. The next time I'm sick, I'm just going to go in and hopefully puke on her. Maybe then she won't try and make me feel guilty about staying home.

Midterms start next week. I'm freaking out. I haven't even begun studying, and I'm so behind in my readings. And being sick isn't helping the matter. I hope I start feeling better soon.
