Oh, hey...we're still sick over here.

N has turned the corner, but he still has a fever.  The good news is it's much lower and more manageable.  The bad news is he's starting to be a pain in the rear.  Obviously, he's totally on the road to recovery.

I know the make-up work load is going to be enormous, so I'm trying to get all of my homework out of the way sooner rather than later.  Today I wrote a 2200 word essay on Ancient Greece.  Do I particularly care for Ancient Greece?  Not really, but...I mean, they're the guys who invented the Olympics, so I think that's pretty awesome.

The assignment was a web report, which, in retrospect, is a lot easier than the majority of major writing assignments I have this semester.  I had to find websites about a certain topic and compile the information into a report OR I could find a website that had a lot of information about the topic and write a review of the site.  So, I did that.  And bye the time I had written my introduction and a synopsis of one of the EIGHT tabs, I was already at 700 words.  Easy peasy.  I finished 2200 words in a little less than 2 hours and sent my dad a text declaring that he should be so proud of his daughter who is, in fact, a genius.  I waited for him to ask me if I was referring to my sister, which would have warranted a punch when I go visit him this coming weekend, but it has been blissfully silent around here.

Speaking of silent, N has been pretty quiet...and not because he doesn't feel well, although his head really hurts fairly frequently.  No, it's because he's taken it upon himself to watch the entire Psych series during this bout of viral whatever.  The silence is interrupted every once in a while by giggles, and I will admit that some of them are mine coming from the other room when I hear Shaun or Gus make some ridiculous remark.  That show is pretty fantastic.  I'm sad that it ended.

It rained super duper hard today, and I think that contributed to feelings of restlessness and stir-crazy-isms.  N will stay home tomorrow, too...but I think I might try to get him out of the house a little bit.  I've been going nuts.  I can't imagine how he feels!
