    OK, so I'm feeling guilty and like a big giant baby wussy girl lol. Here goes: late Wednesday night/ early Thursday morning I woke up all stuffy, yep I got a cold. So yesterday (Thurs.) I only had one class and I didn't go, figuring I could get better. Well today I have 3 classes and I woke up a little late and my throat hurt and still stuffy and I didnt go today either. So, yeah I could've gone and in fact over the summer I had a worse cold and went to class and if it was mid week or if I didn't know what we were doing in class (they are currently crossing w/ each other) then I would have dragged my butt in. So now I feel guilty like I should have gone and am being a wuss and now something worse might happen cuz I "took advantage" of this. I know that last part is completely irrational but it's what has run thru my brain. I do really feel crappy but not as crappy as I did this summer. So I think that's part of it too. But I am a big believer on listening to your body and resting it when sick no matter how mild the illness, maybe that's my wussiness talking tho lol or my rationalizing. I guess I just want some input, even if it's saying "uh, yeah, you are a wuss...GEEZ!" LOL! Thanks in advance guys for reading this whine and any responses.[img]smileys/smilies_01.gif[/img]

    awww. so sorry, I've been sick too... I actually posted about it cause it'd driving me nuts. I usually go to class, but I slack on the homework... and make Mike take care of dinner and the iddle biddle (anthony)... I'm glad you didn't go though... cause I know the nasty thoughts I THINK about people as they hack away in class... especially if they aren't covering their mouth.. EEWWW...


    Ok.. I think I've said enough.. I hope you feel better though.

    Sorry to hear that you have a cold. I know all about those. Both my son and I got one, and then it came back, worse. So, chances are you did the right thing, since maybe you might get it worse...who knows, right? I wouldn't have gone either. Better to listen to the body. It wasn't HUGE days, and no tests or anything, so don't feel guilty. Heck, i used to not go to class b/c on Friday's at the college I went to, started serving alcohol at noon....[img]smileys/smilies_39.gif[/img] Them were the days!!!


    Take care, feel better.

    I think you did the right thing by staying out while you aren't feeling well, but I think the same thing as you do. I will not call in to work sick just because I want the day off. I'm afraid if I do that, it will jinx me and then I really WILL get sick and possibly *v*.
