I realized today that the reason I haven't really been full-blown sick this season is because I've been willing it away. Today in the car on the way to SF for an interview I started to get the sniffles. I was already tired after a night of lousy sleep. But I just told myself not now, I can't get sick now. Which is what I've been telling myself since basically September. Everytime I get flu-ish or stuffed up, I take a lot of drugs and start admonishing my immune system.

I think somewhere around Jan. 1 I'm going to have a complete physical breakdown. Y'all should come watch, should be fun.

Sunday was my mini graduation ceremony and other than the part where the 'special guest speaker' didn't show up --it was quite lovely. Of course the weird thing is I still have school this week. I've graduated, but I have class...

It's been a flurry of days and I've barely had time to watch the news or read through the paper or scroll through various Web sites....I'm hoping for a weekend of relative quiet (maybe just holiday baking and cleaning) will allow me time to catch up with the world beyond Julia's twins and Lindsay Lohan's awful album. Sometimes I can't believe I get paid to care about these things. It's not a bad gig mind you...just strange, that's all.
