A Red-Letter Day

So, uh, I can't talk. Why? Because I apparently talk a lot.

I ran my mouth for about 3 hours on Monday, an hour of which was practicing for a presentation that I had the next day. Tuesday I did my usual socializing with a noticeably sore throat, along with another 30 minutes of presentation practice... All for a presentation that I didn't have to give. It was for my senior design class; the teacher said that the presenter would be chosen at random from the group, so we all had to prepare knowing full well the odds were in our favor to not be picked... And sure enough, I didn't get picked.

Yesterday I just kept talking though. I just can't keep my mouth shut. Today I finally got the message, but spent over an hour out in the cold in front of engineering learning how to put up scaffolding in my construction safety class.

And to top it off, I don't like tea, or any hot beverages for that matter, that would do me a world of good right now. I am contemplating just sitting in the shower with the fan off, though... Doubt the suite would appreciate that.
