I'm Not Getting Sick

I've made up my mind. I've made up my mind, and I'm not getting sick. So there, lurking illness.

In other news, still don't have a job, but the volunteer work is keeping me plenty busy. I'm involved in three projects right now, and one of them might even pay me a little bit. Not much, but it should buy groceries for a week--meaning I don't have to take grocery money out of my savings. Hurray!

As it turns out, there are plenty of planning jobs in the area, but they're all for people with experience...hence the volunteer work. I've got to do something to get real world experience on the resume. The work I'm doing may not pay, but it's worth a lot to be able to put it on the ol' c.v.

Last Saturday, went to a friend's birthday party at a local restaurant. The food was good, the company was entertaining, the restaurant's bathroom was great, the shoes were un.comfortable. The group went out dancing after dinner, but JLR and I had to check out of the party. Why do pretty shoes hurt so much? That's it, I said. I'm saving up for some Cole Haan Nike Air. I bet we wouldn't have had to go home if I'd been wearing these: http://shrinkster.com/14yu

By golly.

P.S. If you know of anyone who has worn Cole Haan Nike Air shoes and can say whether they really are as comfortable as they're supposed to be, please do let me know.

It might not be pending illness. It might just be allergies. There was a story on the news last night about how doctors are seeing lots of people who think they have a cold but really only have allergies.

Anyway, just FYI...

It probably is just allergies. A bad cold and a stomach virus have been running around JLR's office, and I've been afraid she's going to bring one of the ailments home with her. And since I've been feeling rather run down lately, thoughts of illness have been weighing on my mind. But I'm really, *really* hoping it's just allergies. Guess I should start taking your daily anti-allergy multi-medication regimen. :)
