Stop the presses!
I called in for a sub. Yes, an actual sick day, my second ever. I almost called today, after waking up with crusty eyes, but I didn't have anything ready for a sub and didn't know whether I should call in or not. After sticking it out all day, having to make the kids work independently whenever my voice would give out, I knew I needed a day off. My voice is going to be groggy for a long time if I don't take a day off from talking. Shoot, this just happened in June! However, making sub plans sucks, which is part of the reason I never used to take days off.
My eyes are kind of gross (got some eyewash for that) and I just generally feel like yuck. Fever even, at least I think I have a little one. Cough that makes me sore. And either medicine finally kicked in or taking off my t-shirt really made the difference in my temperature.
I'm staying up to watch the women's gymnastics all-around finals. I love that it's live, 13 hours ahead over in China. Good stuff, I tell you. I love it when I recognize the floor routine music, even if I can't name it. I know I heard some Pirates of the Caribbean music earlier. But, seriously, I envy those girls in that they seem to have NO leg hair! How does that work?? What are those leotards made of, since they don't seem to sweat, either.
Last rotation, then I can sleep!
Never mind, US won gold and silver, yay!
