...and that is something i very rarely do. sick, tired, dying, i'm at my desk. simply because it is, for the most part, easier to drag my sorry ass in than it is to get sub plans together, materials for the class, and deal with the mess when i go back. and there is simply no time in our scheduled curriculum for days off.
but today i simply had it. my head has ached for what seems like weeks now and i have a shooting pain through my left shoulder blade from where the muscle is balled up and i can't get it to un-ball.
this is an ugly time of the year, and it's even more so given the economic realities of the day. but honestly, i simply can't force myself to go in. so i sat in my room until six tonight getting everything ready for my unscheduled day off, where i will attempt to at least get some rest if nothing else.
