I left work last night at about 5:30 and stopped for gas on the way home. I scope out the gas prices on the way down and then stop at the best place on the way back. This time it was Shell, which was a double winner, because I can also use my Jewel-Osco rewards card for a discount. I believe I only got a .25 discount, but every snowflake counts, right? I think it was about $19 -- don't have the receipt handy right now.
I'll do my recaps tomorrow. Normally I would be excited to get to them, but I am so sick today I have no interest. I was better yesterday, but today my cold is in the draining stage, but I still have the headache. Yuck. Taking Theraflu doesn't seem to help at all, but ibuprofen seems to help. Unfortunately I took the last one this morning. I may need to venture out to get more, and while I'm at it, I ought to get a humidifier, too. This condo, with its radiator heat, is very dry, and that isn't helping me any.
I parked on the street last night. While there were places on my street, they were tight and would have required skillful parallel parking. I was willing to try, but there was too much traffic. So I parked on a cross street that was actually quite close to my alley. Really only a few steps more than my "old" parking place.
It's a bummer to be sick at this time of year. All year I look forward to the time between Christmas and New Years to catch up on things and get organized. This year it's been a total wash. Between work and illness, it's been a total waste of time. Blah.
I really wanted to go see Les Miserables today, but I will have to improve a lot before I can do that.
