I think I managed to bite this infection in the ear pretty early. I've still got a lot of congestion, but otherwise I'm fine; I'm back to playing DDR and drinking milk and I feel like I'll be well over this by my birthday. So yay for that. Or something.
But of course into my life a great deal of crap must fall. I had plans on ways to spend the break involving my friends, and so far none of them have been calling me to figure out what we were going to do, in spite of assurances that they would do so. (This infection isn't contagious, so I know I couldn't have given it to them.) I finally called the one friend who I'd most been looking forward to spending time with over the break, and she kind of gave me the cold shoulder.
You know, it was bad enough when I was thinking that I'd be going off to grad school somewhere far, far away, because it would mean separation from all the friends I've finally made here in Toledo. Then I realized that I'll probably end up staying here after all is said and done, and while I was looking forward to blazing new trails elsewhere, I realized that at least I'd be able to keep in touch with all of the friends I've made here. Now it looks like I'll be stuck here in town, and my friends don't want to have much at all to do with me. This, folks, is my life in a nutshell.
