Sick

The only thing that I didn't enjoy about my weekend was getting sick. So now I feel like crap. I missed classes on Monday, too. At least tomorrow's first class begins at 11, so I can sleep in a little. Plus, for some reason there isn't as much homework as usual for tomorrow. I guess I got sick at the right time. One thing I should do is try to write some cover letters. If you haven't seen it yet, you should check this out. It's really funny.

Back to this weeked. The Super Bowl Party at the Stollers was fun. I was in the middle of getting sick, so it was hard to focus on the game at times. It was really good seeing everyone, though. I'm glad the Steelers won, but I wish the game had been closer. My head is really foggy right now, so if you can't understand what I'm writing, or the order of events seems nonsensical, it's because I'm sick. I hate being sick. Jess isn't feeling so good either. It was nice seeing the Stollers too.

For those who don't know, my best friend for the first two years of college was Corey Stoller. He died after sophomore year of Cancer. It's called osteo-sarcoma. It's a bone cancer. Corey was inspirational in my life. I'm sure he touched so many other lives too. He was my roommate both Freshman and Sophomore years, but when I met him I felt like I had known him so much longer. I miss him a lot. Seeing his parents is always nice. Since Sophomore year, we have spent the Super Bowl at their house. We also see them every year on or around Corey's birthday and usually on the anniversary of his death. June 12. He was so full of life it's so hard to think that he's dead.

Enough of that. Jess and I are debating a trip to D.C. for spring break. My brother and his wife live in northern Va. and would probably put us up for a few days. Might be fun.

One final note. Something I thought was funny: during a vote by the Republican members of the U.S. House of Representatives to replace their leader with one who would stem the tide of corruption, the intial vote-count was higher than the number of Republicans in the house. Sounds like their corruption is hindering their ability to stop corruption.
