I really thought after having such an excellent time with the MOMA visit that it would be all butterflies and daffodils the rest of the week. Boy was I wrong!! I've had the lousiest week ever. Where do I begin?
Well, first off, I didn't write this week (with the exception of that one blog entry, nothing else.) That alone has left me in a foul mood. I've allowed life distractions to get in the way and now I'm feeling irked at myself. I had some real momentum going a couple of weeks ago with the story and since then I haven't written a thing. Ergh! What crap!! Then I lost my monthly metrocard (which I just bought)...and I'm one of those people that really really really hates losing things. I felt myself going a little mental over it...even turning my bag inside out and still not coming to terms with the fact that it was gone.
Then on another morning, I actually got stopped by cops and had my bag inspected...I hate that!! Fascist pigs!!...on a day that I was running late for work, which made me miss my train and I got to the office almost twenty minutes late. Again, what crap!! I feel hollowed out...like someone scooped my insides and left a shell of a person standing on my stoop. To top everything off I've come down with another chest cold...which has left me feverish, with body aches and a rattling cough...so much so that I can't sleep. Which explains why I'm up at 1:44 am writing this blog entry.
I did manage to take a sick day from work yesterday...just couldn't get myself out of bed after a hacking cough the night before. This morning, I reached out to a friend needing some sympathy only to have the conversation start to go down on a rant about incompetent people. Not really what I wanted to hear and left me hanging up pretty quickly and hiding under my duvet. So now I can't sleep. I'm tossing and turning and coughing and there is no Nyquil to be found in the medicine cabinet. Mental note to buy a bottle in the morning and some Lipton chicken noodle soup. I'm really glad this week is over.

Ouch, we all have these I guess, but that doesn't make it any better. Sometimes being under the duvet and drinking hot tea (and on these frigid winter days) is the best place to be.
