Working My Ass Off While Dying
Previous Entry :: Next Entry

Mood:
Frustrated and Sick

My weekend bites ass. I'm still way sick and not getting much better. I have all the symptoms I had yesterday, and a few new ones. I now also cough all the time and am getting a buildup of something in my lungs. Fucking great. This always happens when I get a cold so I really shouldn't be surprised. I get a cold, it turns into bronchitis, which turns into pneumonia, which ends up with me sick as a dog or in the hospital. The only difference this time is that I have to make a huge presentation on Monday. A 15 minute closing argument and then a rebuttal argument after the defense makes his closing argument. I have a feeling I won't be feeling well for it. I just hope I can get through it with a clear voice and without a ton of coughing. The absolute worst part is that it will be videotaped and in a few weeks we'll all view our tapes and be critiqued. I so don't want to see a sick me struggling through the damn argument. *sigh* This couldn't have happened at a worse time this semester.

So, even though I'm way sick I spent today working on my closing argument. It's 2:40 and I'm done with most of the actual argument. Tomorrow I still have to go to Staples and get some stuff, make the visual aid, write the rebuttal, put the finishing touches on the argument, and then memorize everything. If I can get that all done then I deserve a cookie or something. Cause I don't know it it's going to happen or not. I seriously wish I never enrolled in this class.

Rob has been amazing through all of this. He's spending his weekend cooped up in the house with me and taking care of me. The last time I left the house was Thursday to go to school. And the last time he was out of the house was Friday to go to work. He's amazing. Taking care of me while sick, cuddling me while I have the shakes, and helping me as much as he can with my closing argument. I don't know what I would do without him, I really don't. He's incredible.

Now if I could only pad him up, put him in a wig and a suit, and send him in to do the argument for me on Monday...
