Crap

I was all set to do the NaBlo March thing, especially since the theme is "lists." I mean, I can post everyday, especially if I only have to do a list when words are short, right? Except, no. Not when I'm just turning 'round the bend of being horribly mind-depleting sick. Because though one is getting better, one's mind still forgets that you had decided to do this.

Even

I am ridiculously happy to feel alive and not sick, however trite that sounds.

That said, I'm not so pleased about the whole looking like I belong in a horror movie thing.

Things

-I have had a headache for nearly 22 hours. It's annoying, but at least it's not the flu!
-I have not had the flu for several years, so I suppose it's fitting that I got a case of it, bad, this year. Still: ugh, it sucked.
-I never remember that I shouldn't go grocery shopping when hungry. So hungry.
-Since daylight savings hit, it's light when I leave work! Soon it will be light for a long time after work! I am thrilled, and now I can take photos in the light! After work! Thrilling.

Three Fridays

Three Fridays ago, I turned twenty-six. (I can tell that I am getting older because I sometimes forget how old I am. Sometimes, I have to do the math.) It was frigidly cold and windy outside, in the negative windchills that night. I swung by my apartment to grab a few things, then headed right out to a restaurant for dinner. That night I drank a lot, and went to bed quite late, considering I had to get up relatively early for a drive to the Chicago-area on Saturday.

Two Fridays ago started out grey and rainy, but by the time work was done it was glorious - 40s and so so sunny. I stopped to get gas and washed all my salt-covered car windows. When I parked at my apartment building, I wiped down the inside of my car - dash, windowsills, etc - while the doors were opening, listening to music. It felt like spring was here.

Today I left work and had to brush off the snow covering my windshield. When I turned onto my street, the snow atop my car fell forward and down in big sheets, and I had to use the windshield wipers to clear the snow off. I determined that spring was not, in fact, here yet.
