I've been so sick this week. It must be a flu, because colds I can shrug off, but the flu kicks me in the butt. Whatever this is, it's kicking me in the butt.

I think the worst part is not just letting work pile up, but not being around for my labs, for my kids. I love interacting with my students, it's probably my favorite part of being a physics instructor.

But, I don't want to be Typhoid Mary. I don't want to get my students sick, so I stay away as much as I can.

I feel like I might be getting better. But I also took generic nyquil, so who knows.
