So I was running a bit late this morning, and when I was waiting at the light to cross the street, I see my bus driving down the road. Cursing at myself for barely missing the bus, all I could do is stand there waiting to cross the street.

Naturally, it was kind of stressful, but luckily we had some amusement because the nurse, a cute hispanic guy, kept bringing me cocoa and graham crackers and stuff.

Am sick. I am never sick, but it so happens that whatever Kevin had two weeks ago has been bequethed ever so conventiently to me. My immune system has been fighting it for weeks, but clearly the incident on Friday, with me running around the track looking like Barney in front actors and a camera crew, broke my immune system's last resolve.

So, it seems that my good intentions can really screw things up. It happens all the time really. On the small scale, for example, I get a call from one of my best-est friends from Austin, and somehow the phone disconnects.
