From Fiona's backpack

Fiona finally cleared out her backpack today and passed something on to me that I found quite amusing: imagine what would happen if an English teacher got a hold of Lincoln's Gettysburg Address.

In other news, I passionately want to rip out my lungs. My family is trying to dissuade me, telling me that I need them. My response is that they are absolutely no use to me right now and in fact are driving me crazy.

Hmm. I guess I'll hold on to 'em now, at least until I finish this cup of tea and see whether that allows me to sleep.

Feverish. I hope I don't have to go into work tomorrow--unless there is some snafu with that order for an extension we're expecting from the Court and I have to go in to do a filing after all, hacking away.

*snork* Is that a handout she got as an exercise of some kind, or did she do the "correcting" herself?

Were you able to find a Neti pot? I hope it starts to help you soon, and that you can stay home and rest today.

It came from her teacher like that.

I did find the Neti pot and I used it last night. It's quite easy to use. I imagine it's going to take a few days of treatments (and with the inhaler too) before my system settles down. My body seems to be having a real hissy fit. I was feverish last night, and my glands in my throat are quite swollen today.
