Sick Day


Yet the day is not sick at all!!
So, let me check this again - I sit at home, am obliged to do no work, and allow a casual to do whatever seems good to them with my class, and watch as much tv and do as much blogging as seems good to me?!
What is this?
Deep down, I know I like resting, spending time chilling, having fun. But that's SATURDAY. IT'S NOT SATURDAY. THIS FEELS WRONG.
Technically, I am not well. It is true, my eyes having been watering intermittently and my olefactory system has been dramatically malfunctioning.
And I witnessed this affecting my professional capacity - the mums in reading groups looking ever so slightly freaked out by the noise and chaos my cherubs exhibited. It is ever so slightly possible that if I had been """"well""", I would have whipped my minions of evil back into line way before that.
Obviously, because I am upside-down, my body has completely taken out the virus during my relaxed morning, so I don't even FEEL sick anymore. And obviously, being upside-down, instead of enjoying a day off feeling good, I feel guilty for feeling good....
It occurs to me I may be sick in more ways than one.
groses bisous!

You're a very strange girl, you know that. You make me smile though, so I suppose it doesn't really matter :)

Hope you're feeling better.

I know this is almost a month late, but... poor Ali!! And I know just what you mean. Not feeling sick when you have a day off is in the same category as not being able to go to sleep on the one night you have in which to get to bed early. Annoying, but in a terrible way, somewhat inevitable! Murphy's Law. Whoever Murphy was should have been shot before he could make his law, I think.

Love you!
