No more whining about other people's drama -- but I will tell you that I have been fighting a migraine since Monday. Yesterday was the only day I was able to function; I didn't go to work today and was bitched out by the dean, through the assistant dean, who -- rather than send a "fresh" email -- did a "reply all" on the original email from the dean asking if anyone had heard that I wouldn't be in today. The assistant dean's email included a list of what I should do when I miss a class (99% of which I had done), written in a tone that would have been better directed toward a child than a professional educator. I'm sure my migraine made me take it more harshly than it was intended. At least, I'll say that I believe that.
My contractor came over to fix my dryer, and he seemed disappointed that I had already set it up to have the cabinets installed by the company I'm buying them from, and the same with the tile. I said, "My preference would have been to have you do it, but you didn't get back to me so I figured you were too busy." He is missing out on a good bit of money -- not my fault. Plus, a team will be able to get it done so much quicker. Happily, the dryer issue was just a blown fuse, and now it is fixed.
If my headache is not better tomorrow, I will miss my two Thursday classes too. I hate to miss class, but when it hurts like this, I can't function (with or without medication). I have prescription pills for the headaches which I try not to take. I've been taking them every four hours today and still it's no better. Maybe I should see the doctor if it's not better by tomorrow or Friday. I don't want to. I just want to fall asleep and have the semester be over and my house renovation finished. On the other hand, I don't know how long it will take -- probably longer than I want to (or should) sleep.
