sick

I'm getting sick, stuffy nose and slight chills and sweats mostly. Chicken noodle soup, tea, and oatmeal are my friends whenever I get sick, as my throat always suffers the worse. I really need to get my tonsiles removed, they're constantly enlarged anyways, and I think I am at a point in my life where they are doing more harm than good.

Sony couldn't make it tonight for bellydance, so tomorrow we shall dance! I can't wait.

I bought a book today. I found my missing $20, and it went towards oatmeal, yogurt, and a book, The Heart of Buddha's Teachings by Thich Nhat Hanh. I probably should have putit towards gas, but as soon as I opened it up, I couldn't resist. So far, it is a beautiful and straight forward intro to the Buddha's teachings.

I was beginning to get slightly worried because Iwas unable to reach my dad today. I hadn't heard from him in quite some time because he was away on a trip, but he had returned last thursday, and I hadn't heard from him. Serveral attempts to call him, even at his office, proved useless. Finally I got a hold of him this evening. It was good to hear his voice, I really missed him.
