Survival

I can't shake this cough; I wake up every morning with my mouth tasting, bizarrely, like chicken stock.

I can't get more than a couple of hours of uninterrupted sleep. I go to bed at 8 or 9 PM, and wake up at 11, at 1, at 3.

Basically, I feel like crap, but I still have to prepare my online lectures. I'm currently putting together a PowerPoint slide show about mathematics in the Roman Empire and the following period of retransmission, leading up to the work of Fibonacci.

I haven't been able to add audio yet, but someone at IT pointed me to a source that may help me clear that up.

What I'd really like to do is just curl up in bed, and stay there until I start feeling better, but a) I'd starve and b) I still have a job to do.

Bleah, I say. Bleah!

Bleah! seems entirely accurate.

No sick leave?

I find expectorants help a lot with persistent coughs. Whether you can get any just now may make this a moot point...
