candyland: (annoyed)
It's a quarter after five in the morning. I woke up half an hour ago coughing and hacking, and I can't get back to sleep. My lungs seem to be in rebellion, and I can't for the life of me figure out why. I don't think I've done anything to them lately. Why are they doing this to me?

I'm starting to feel like my body has somehow programmed itself to wake up after six hours of sleep because that's what's happening lately. Especially after last night--I downed a full dose of Nyquil to knock me out (which it did), and usually that stuff puts me under for at LEAST eight hours. But nope, I dropped into glorious unconsciousness for maybe six and a half, and then YOU BE AWAKE NOW!

I'm really quite tempted to get dressed and run to the store in Oskie before school to grab some cough syrup and more Dayquil. I'm going to float through classes today, oh yes I am~ And no, not staying home. Need to go to work. I can function. Just need to be drugged up a bit to help!

...and I have that meeting right after school.

*flops into the lap of the nearest person and mewls for pettings*


ETA: I'll look through the voice recording meme things later. Unless someone reeeeeeeeally wants me to sing 'em now, with the scratchy throat and the coughing and the other stuff? I'm sure that would be a recording for the ages >_>;;


SON OF ETA: ...so after I made this post, I was freezing, so I went and curled up in bed to try and warm...and somehow managed to doze back off around six AM. Woke up again forty-five minutes later when my alarm went off. Wow, I am going to be glassy-eyed today... *goes to get ready for work*

I'm sure you're all sick of hearing about my health (or lack thereof), so I'll keep it short--still feel like crap. Still hate my sinuses. Still coughing like it's going out of style. Still planning on taking large quantities of psychedelic drugs (i.e. Nyquil) to knock me out. Hopefully for the ENTIRE NIGHT tonight.

And for the record, Nyquil can be a psychedelic drug. Take it when your body isn't done throwing up yet and thus will not sleep. You see funny things. Why were there shadow-people in my dorm room that night...? *whimpers*

Today was a weird day. I'd actually forgotten that it's Standardized Test Week in our district. High school had the ITEDs (Iowa Tests of Educational Development) today and tomorrow, and the middle school is in ITBS (Iowa Tests of Basic Skills) all week. So the schedule is sort of wonky. I always hated those tests when I was in school, not because I have any great dislike for tests, per se, but because I'm a very fast reader, so I tended to breeze through those tests...and then have to sit there with nothing to do for fifteen minutes. Y HALO THAR ADHD! \o/

Spent much of my morning administering tests to kids, then had first period choir, fifth period study hall (that's the lunch period), second period choir, and THEN hopped in my car to rush to the middle school to run a quick choir rehearsal, then BACK to the high school for a meeting *pantpantflops*

Tomorrow will be a bit easier, though. We've got tests in the morning, and then it runs periods four through eight. Only one where I have students is fifth--a girl in my study hall. Then I have study hall eighth period at the middle school...for twenty-five minutes.

We started the Les Miserables medley with the high schoolers today. It's not hard at all. Just long ^^;; But I burned all the songs in it onto a CD, and we're listening to 'em as we go through 'em. They all seem to be liking it so far, which is nice :D And the girl who asked if we could do something Les Mis kept saying, "I love you, Miss S!" Which made me feel happy ♥

No new ficcage tonight. Got a couple of things half-scrawled out in my notebook (did that while the kids were testing--not like I really had much else to do), but nothing completed or typed. And I'm overall just not in the mood for it right now. I do have my twenty-fourth fandom done for [livejournal.com profile] 100fandomhell, though--wrote it a couple of days ago. Might go post it now...or tomorrow...I dunno.

Wonder what I should have for dinner tomorrow...

...yeah. I'm boring. I know.

Double post, but it's worth it. So I got into a chat with [livejournal.com profile] clover_magic, and we wound up going off on a tangent about the dub-names in DC/MK. And the results...well, it's long, but they were just too much fun to NOT share.

Momo isn't allowed to make puns anymore. )

And for those who find this all teal-deer, here's our condensed list of Bad Dub Names.

And the Razzie goes to... )

Why yes, we did have a very long discussion about this. WE ARE COMMITTED TO TALKING ABOUT THESE THINGS SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO! \o/ Or something...

Chat fun!
