Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.
-Albert Camus

oh how i hate being sick...i called in sick yesterday and today i came in...silly me thought that maybe being in the work environment would get me better..ummm..no...in fact it seems to have made me worse..being all stuffed up and congested in my cube is crappy..i don't think any of the thera-flu, sudafed, tea, or soups that i've constantly been taking since friday have helped..i think i've become immune to it all...well maybe the thera-flu helped in those brief minutes of when i could actually breath through both my nostrils..and then bam..the clarity disappeared and i was back to feeling like that dude in the nyquil commercial..blahhhh..too much complaining and not enough appreciation in this blog huh?..well, for starters..i am very grateful for my health...it may not be the best these past few days..but overall, i should be happy i'm a healthy 23-year-old...as for the other goings on or going ons? in my life..everything's been dandy/peachy keen?/grrrrrreat...so nothing to think badly about..i guess every once in a while i need a dose of reality and all the things that i should be thankful for come in to light..besides sleeping all weekend and being a drugged up lump for boogerlou this weekend..it was nice to see the familia on saturday...haha even though i tried to stay like 5 feet away from everyone so not to get them sick, it was still a good night...gosh i never got to talk about the etta james concert me and louie saw at h.o.b. huh?..all i can say is seeing etta live was dope!..this woman is pure soul..so if there's ever a venue where this lady is at, i highly recommend it...and having her close the night off with "at last" was so cooool! it was like the cherry topping to an already perfect sundae..i dunno, i just thought she performed very well..haha and although she performed numerous sexual innuendos during her sets, it was all gravy..i got nothing but love for the lady=)...
