Life goes on

It's day five of coughing, sniffling, sneezing, stuffy head, and fever. I've gone through three boxes of tissue and two packages of cough drops, but I think I'm on the downhill slide now. I have a short meeting in the morning, and I asked for the rest of the day off. That will give me three-and-a-half blissful days of rest and relaxation before getting back to work.

Sickness aside, I'm getting really tired of this life purgatory. There's so much to do and I don't have the energy for any of it. I need to sell my house but I haven't taken the time to buy the sign. I need to move my office but I haven't packed a single thing. I did leave something in my new office today, so I guess I'm slowly making progress.

Today was graduation from my leadership class which means no more monthly meetings and no more reason for LB and I to be around each other unless we choose to. I really hate that things are still awkward between us, but they totally are. I find myself not knowing what to say, not knowing how to act, and feeling weird. Obviously he feels the same way because we sat across from one another at lunch today and said about three words to each other. Lots of looks, very little conversation. Oh, I know we'll get past it, but it makes me sad. Really, really sad.

But tomorrow is another day. And tomorrow night's a party. With other friends and LB. Wonder if he'll bring a date...
