yep.
Definitely sick. Stayed home from work today. I'm finally feeling slightly human again, but it's sure taking its sweet time.
I was thinking, while I was home sick, about how grateful I am to have a boss and a job that LETS me call in sick once in a while. I don't do it very often, but when I do, I REALLY NEED to stay home and rest. It's such a refreshing change to not dread calling my boss about situations like this, knowing she's not going to pressure me into coming in sick or working extra hours to make up for it. If the weather is bad, she lets me close the gym early to avoid a dangerous drive home. If I can't work a day, she tries to find coverage, and if she can't, she works the shift herself. It's so nice to be glad to go to work each day. I know it's not going to be my job forever, but it's a good place for now.
GMU has at least processed my entire application, so they have received all my recommendations and stuff. Now we just have to wait until I get my "skinny" or my "fat" envelope...but I've really made my peace with whichever way things go. If I don't get in, I'm going to look for some sort of position in that field, maybe something at Wolftrap over the summer. We'll see.
Mike has paper samples he wants to show me for the wedding invitations. It's so cute seeing him get all professional on me with this project of his. I'm glad there's a way he can contribute his talents to the whole shebang.
