Day 33: Sick Day

     Purple blouse, knitted vest, tribal print maxi skirt.
     NEVER has a day been so weary.
     Today was awful.  I woke up and could barely move.  I tried to get up and make an effort, but I simply couldn't bring myself to do it.  The makeup I was wearing today was the makeup I wore on homecoming night.  Yup, I didn't take it off, it was from Saturday.  My hair wasn't even touched.  I walked out the door this morning without even looking in the mirror.
     School is THE WORST PLACE to be in the entire world when you're sick.  I have a terrible cold and had a fever for most of the day.  Why am I walking around Monte Vista with a fever?  I couldn't tell you.  I'm so dumb, it was NOT the right choice for me to get up and go to school.  But it was too late.  I went to school and stuck it out.
     I didn't wear a jacket all day, I was just really hot.  Luckily, it was about 50degrees outside today so it balanced out.
     You know you're sick when someone comments on how horrible you look in each of your classes.  As I walked into Algebra, the boy in front of me looked up: "OHMYGOSH, Maddy you look terrible.  You really ought to go home...".  Okay thanks for telling me how bad I look, and no I'm not going home, I can stick it out.
     I was so wrong.
     The boy in math was just the first one of many comments.  I really need to learn how to be a better listener.
     When I got home, I crashed on the couch for a couple hours and talked to my grandparents who came by.  And now: procrastination.  I cant stand being sick.
