Down with a cold

On Thursday evening, I realized that I had a cold. My throat started to hurt, and I felt unusually tired. I took off yesterday from work as a sick day (though I did make an important hard-to-set-up meeting at 9am.) I slept a fair amount and tried sleeping even more. I suspect that I'll need to nap throughout today and tomorrow to make sure that I get well ASAP.

My mind continued to race while lying in bed. My body was saying, "You must rest." My brain says, "You must work." I hadn't counted on being so drained by the code4lib conference, followed almost immediately by Mashup Camp, combined by the rigorous demands of teaching a new course plus a whole lot of other circumstances. Even as I write this paragraph, my eyes and legs feel droopy and draggy. Time to nap a bit.
