chibi_oniyuriWoke up this morning with a sore throat, what felt like a golf ball-sized lump of crud in my throat, and my nose stuffed up to kingdom come. Either a pretty quick cold, or allergies on crack.
On the chance it was allergies, took a Benadryl. Will definitely never do that again, as two hours after taking it, I was so drowsy and out of it that I needed to take a midafternoon nap, which is unusual for me. On the other hand, I could suddenly breathe and the crud reduced in size, so it may have been worth it. Tea took care of the sore throat temporarily.
Another point of suckitude today: needed to write a paper. Correction, need to write a paper. Spent most of the morning, as well as three hours yesterday, looking for a suitable article. Finally found it, sent it to the professor for approval at two, crashed for the aforementioned nap, and got up three hours later to find that she still hadn't approved it. A few texts later, I found out she never received an email from me....
Chalking it up to being drugged, I sent the email again, got approval almost instantly, and sat down to start the blasted paper.
Five hours later, I've written a grand total of four sentences, and the paper is due in seven hours. I seriously doubt I'm going to get this done. Either the cold or the Benadryl is making my head fuzzy. I can't concentrate on anything for longer than 5 minutes. I'm tired as I've ever been after pulling an all-nighter, and I haven't even started the bugger yet.
Does real life come with a reset button? I do not appreciate today, and I'd seriously like to do it over.
Also, the amount of times I've had to fix typos while typing this? Ridiculous. At least I can be glad I caught them before I posted.
