it's official - cabin fever has set in

After 3 1/2 days indoors fighting this godawful virus, I officially have cabin fever. I'm too sick to even think of venturing out, but I have reached the end of trying to entertain myself. I read a little bit but got bored. Then I tried to play Super Mario Galaxy, but ended up in a sweaty coughing fit because I got so frustrated!

You know things are bad when you watch two consecutive episodes of the Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency. Yeah, two. I'm so ashamed. I spent the afternoon working on a take-home test, but this congestion makes my head feel pretty cloudy. I can't wait to look at my assignment tomorrow to try and make sense of it before turning it in.

I had planned to caucus for the first time tomorrow afternoon, but even that is looking doubtful. Every time I cough, it sounds and feels like a lung is working it's way out of my body. Chris will be happy that I probably won't go and cancel out his vote since he plans to caucus for Obama and I was planning on caucusing for Clinton (although I'm still pretty undecided).

I may have to try and venture out a bit tomorrow so I keep my sanity. At this point, I'd just be happy to drive around the block a few times.

Did you guys caucus for the last presidential election? I'm actually annoyed by the whole caucus process. Why can't we just have a vote like everyone else?

I think I'm going to caucus for Obama, too. When he signed my book at Benaroya Hall last year and shook my hand, I noticed he had very soft hands. I think we need a president who makes hand lotion a priority.

Yay! I won't get my vote canceled out :)

No, we didn't caucus last time. We're far more politically involved this election than last.

I'm only voting for Obama because he has soft hands.
