Day 80: Pau, France

Boy, 80 sure sounds like a big number, especially compared to the 49 I have left.  I know they'll dwindle quickly.  This morning, I got an e-mail from the USAC office about end of semester procedures, and it made me very sad that that is only 3 weeks away.  At least I don't have to fly home right away.

This morning, I woke up and felt very tired and groggy.  As I got ready, I realized I actually felt pretty sick.  As I am very concerned about such matters, I decided it would be in my, and my classmates' best interests if I stayed in bed.  So, in bed I stayed.  It didn't help that it is Tuesday. I actually slept for several more hours before I got up.  I did some trumpet, and continued reading Mockingjay.  For lunch I just went to the grocery nearby and got some couscous and a sandwich.  When I was leaving, I was told that I have all of the same symptoms of the recently ill(and still recovering) Thom.  So at least this is kinda legitimate.   I came home, and I ate and took a nap, and then I finished Mockingjay.  Not bad for a few days work.

I really do recommend these books.  To anybody who likes fun, and isn't uppity about things like books.

I did to my literature class, having missed it on Friday, I didn't want to miss again.  It was not too bad, but I did feel horrible.  By the time I got home I felt legitimately sick, and actually almost fell backwards off the steps as I was unlocking the door.  I generally feel pretty terrible(sore throat, congestion, fatigue and dizziness and a headache) so I am going to sleep.  Goodnight.
