stupid cough
It’s not like I’m all that sick. But I have one of those tickle-in-your-throat-wracking-coughs. It’s awful! Jen was so nice, she went to the store for me and got more cough drops for me, and some Nyquil. I waited until I finished with my work today (yes, I was so awesome today I actually got to a finishing point!), coasting on the cough drops, an then took the Nyquil, and was asleep inside of ten minutes. Nyquil has never really had an effect on me before, but you’d be amazed at how vulnerable you can be to this stuff in you’re up working until 3:00am the night before.
I read a really interesting article on the NYTimes (free reg required) about how some people crack under pressure and some people thrive. I’m definately under the ‘thrive’ category, but I haven’t always been invulnerable to the cracking. In college I think I was more susceptible to the cracking. Doing the full-time school and double-time work really stressed me out!
Anyway, the article is a good read!
