A week till NY, two months till Texas, and I'm ready for both.

I really do love what I'm doing.  I'm just sick as a dog and really tired.  I was up past five hacking my lungs out but it sort of got better later in the day.  Went to work two hours late, straight to Lynch Drive, where I got ten minutes with my little sibs...I walked in and looked for my four, and before I even saw her Deanna just screamed "JOANNA!" and nearly knocked me over.  I think she scared the crap out of everyone in the room, but it put smiles on a lot of peoples' faces, especially mine.  Then Kaiah came over and attached herself to me and even Brittney came over for a hug, and we just hung out for those ten minutes -- Deanna went back to chill with Marcus' group because they were doing music stuff and she likes to sing, and Carolina wasn't there today, so I spent my ten minutes giving them their notebooks and telling them they can write anything they want, and all the letters they want to me in there over break.  They were so excited.  It made it worth waking up this morning.

I have lots of updates about car trouble, great service and the like, but first I'm taking a nice long nap, which is absolutely necessary, as all day during service people were telling me I looked pale, to sit down, and was I seeing a doctor soon?  Yeah yeah I will this weekend...all they'll tell me is to take cough syrup and sleep.  (But I need to go to work...I have half a personal day left because I took half of one yesterday when I woke up with a raw throat and no voice.)

Anyway, yeah, update when I wake up.  Ciao!
