I woke up with a sore throat and headache and decided to call in sick, and stay in bed. The staying felt great – I dozed and read with both cats holding me down. And I’m sure the cats loved it too – the heat was on even in the middle of the day, and there was a person to sleep on. But I don’t know if it’s going to help me get weller faster. I didn’t feel hungry – but I ate anyways, oatmeal with dates for breakfast and I just had an egg salad sandwich for dinner. I probably haven’t drunk enough – I had two big mugs of herbal tea, and never had any coffee until about 4:00. I suppose I should start pushing fluids.<\/p>\n

I definitely didn’t go to the demonstration at the Capitol – I thought that would really negate the health benefits of staying in bed. The report is<\/a> that thousands of others showed up, so I guess my absence is OK.<\/p>\n

I made these potatoes from How To Eat Supper<\/a> (cover recipe), but instead of eating them tonight, I tipped them (as the Brit cookbooks would say) into a casserole dish, so we can have them for supper tomorrow after yoga.<\/p>\n

I kinda tried to keep up on email, and my online courses & students. I have to write a Willy St. Co-op Reader <\/em>report (‘cuz I’m on the Board) and that’s about half done, due tomorrow.<\/p>\n

Overall, I feel guilty – ate too much, didn’t do enough – and not nearly as restored as I think I should from my sick day. Maybe there’s something good on TV.<\/p>\n
