You know you're old when...

you miss the last day of your four-day NJWPT conference/teachers' extravaganza because you wake up on said day at six o'clock in the morning and can't move because you've pulled a muscle in your back (apparently because you tried to move your podium across the classroom four days prior) and have to go to the doctor instead of the conference to get muscle relaxers that make you feel *really* good but also make your motor skills foggy. Hence, you have to stay home from work at least two days because trying to drive and/or instruct in such a state could be catastrophic.
Did I mention I also have achiness all over and had a 100.3 temperature at the time of the doctor's visit?

I love you. I'm sure a couple of days taking it easy will do you good.

I like the "Handel's Water Music" that comes up with the link to NJWPT :-)

Unfortunately, I was in the basement computer lab of the Mayo complex at the time.....

Personally, I think it is *abhorant that people would actally read someone's blog and never comment.

Soooo, I came, I read, I commented.

*(is there a teacher around who could tell me if I spelled that word correctly?)

I think it is actually "abhorrent"

But to make sure, I'll check at

Ah, yes, well, *ahem* it appears you are right.

My only excuse, being, that on these Mayo computers, one cannot pull up extra tabs to check on things.

I do have that handy link bookmarked on my computer at home.

Hi!

I haven't talked to you in forever and found your blog by accident. I'm still at the Yellow House.

Hope your back is better!

Very sorry to read about your back (and the fever) - hope you are feeling much better this week.

Any news on the passport and the green card issues?

Chat again soon :-)
