Stiffneckedness

Okay, so it's not what it sounds, but I DO have stiff neck. Anybody have any ideas on how to ease one of those? I think I just slept on it funny, but it still hurts.

Well, Mommy is subbing for three days in an LD Resource (Learning Disability Resource) class, so she was pretty stressed out, but I know she'll do fine. It never ceases to amaze me what a wonderful teacher she is, and how she loves those children.

Poor Catherine came (went?) down with a fever of 103 on Saturday, and a cough. Does pneumonia usually carry a fever and a cough? Maybe I'm just paranoid, but I hate to see my baby feeling so miserable.

The good stuff: I got to spend the Sunday sessions of conference with my family! It was great. Our "mini-meal" (the traditional meal of finger food at the end of the first session, I'm sure it hearkens back to the ancient Israelites) was fantastic: highlights included guacamole, vienna sausages, fresh pineapple, and our clam-olive canapes that were gone within minutes of setting them on the table.

Well, as for me, I've got no news, really. Work's the same as usual, school is okay (I'm starting my first round of midterms, but the panic hasn't hit me yet. It's funny how grandma thinks because I'm having midterms, we're halfway through the semester. Nowadays, "midterm" is just a word for "test whenever I darn well want to have it." (College students: am I right or am I right?) Oh, good news: I got a 95% on a history test I was really worried about, so I'm happy.

Well, I wish I could say I won a sweepstakes or got engaged or got a new job, but none of those would be true. Just a reminder: I do take blind dates and invitations to dinner! (j/k)

That's all for now. Sorry about the big gap 'tween posts.

PS: Daniel, I saw this morning that the Widtsoe (sp?) had a fire drill. Were you there when that happened?
