Rant for 12/2/03

My GOD being sick bites the big one.

I've been sick for over a week now. My throat blew out last Monday (11/ 24)-probably strain from singing beyond my range for too long. I've been eating lozenges like they were candy. I couldn't speak Monday; Tuesday I was so sick I didn't even come into school except to try to give in some paperwork to my College Mentor (only to find out that she WASN'T EVEN THERE), and I've been gradually getting vocally stronger ever since.

But god dammit… I want to SING! And I can't! And it blows!

One thing you have to understand about me. I'm a very, very musical person. I sing. Constantly. As in, it bothers everyone around me how much I sing. Mostly folk music. Because folk music is… well, folky. Yes, it's my sad sad shame-I want to be Art Garfunkel (who, by the way, has been having throat problems of his own). By the way, I saw Simon & Garfunkel in Cleveland. They kicked ASS.

Sorry, got off-topic.

Anyway, I'm sick. And it blows. Because I'm afraid to kiss my girlfriend because I don't want her getting sick. I haven't been able to feel good about my throat for days. And it SUCKS. With a capital SUCKS.

…Wow, I didn't have a whole lot to say, did I?
