I did NOT have mono. just strep. the doctor finally called me two days later to tell me that--after I had already gotten over it.

this morning I awoke to an alarm clock falling on my face and busting my lip open. needless to say, I was displeased. in fact, I started the shower and sat on the toilet and held my head in my hands for at least fifteen minutes. I may have cried. I don't really recall.

in other news, work is bringing me down. the entire population of stupid, USA must have called me today. and the surrounding countryside. stupid people calling me is an everyday occurrance, but this week my coworker is out of town so I'm having to work all day everyday instead of just in the afternoons, and that makes a big difference. it is a lot easier to maintain patience for 5 hours than for 8.

I am ready for outdoorsy stuff. I don't know why, but this summer I'm just all of a sudden really excited about going to the lake and riding seadoos and going fishing and playing bocce and croquet and stuff.

when I was in high school, every year we would have a big spanish vs. latin bocce tournament. the latin class would practice every month and took it seriously, whereas we didn't play all year and made up a bocce chant right before the match. spanish won every year.
