I thought I was invincible. Children's germs turn out to be very potent. Just because I am larger than the children I work with it apparently does not mean that I am above whatever virus or disease they may carry. Like pigeons, children are small but their nastiness knows no bounds. Like pigeons, children are efficient vehicles for a range of diseases. I feel so fragile... Oh, how the might has fallen! I do not let pigeons lick my hands because I think it is unsanitary, so, I should not let children do so either for the same reason.
What should I do with my sick day? Staying home all day will give me cabin fever, which will cause ridiculous food delivery orders, which will cause stomach ache, which will cause another sick day, which will cause an endless cycle. I think I will take some drugs and go to the movies. I might smuggle in my Snuggie.
i still remember going to specialists re. sierra's 'reactive airway disease' and they wrote in ginormous letters on her chart: GOES TO DAYCARE. she's not sick that often, honestly, but apparently hanging out with other kids is toxic to kids' immune systems. which is why i put her in daycare. i say, get their immune systems in boot camp early! that said, we MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSSSS you. i woke up this morning and said, who wants scrambled eggs and toast?! and realized that not only was there no biscoff spread for my toast, there was no josh to make me eggs and offer up genius ideas like bailey's for my early morning coffee! and my clothes are so boring without little luna souvenirs all over my right breast evoking odd stares from frank new yorkers. i'd better stop now before i burst into madonna/eva peron style song.
