getting sick

I swear I’m in the process of getting sick.  For the last week I’ve been literally exhausted.  I’ve had the tired sick feeling and it’s driving me crazy.  A week ago today I was in bed at 8:15 and mostly slept through the night.  Then Monday night of this week I was in bed at 8 and slept through the night again.  Then yesterday, I came home at noon and slept for part of the afternoon.  I went to bed at 10 last night and today I’m still feeling like crap.  Keep in mind that it takes a LOT for me to go to bed before 9:30 and sleep through the night.  I’ve got what feels like the beginning of a cold, but the other symptoms are so mild I wonder if it’s really the flu…except I don’t have the high fever.  Of course, it’s been years since I had a fever.  In any case, I’ve been feeling pretty miserable the last few days

My parents appear to be headed down to IL tomorrow night.  Friday isn’t an option because my mom is having a root canal on Friday and so that takes Saturday out too.  With as tired as I’ve been, in addition to working on Friday…means I’m not going.
