The tears just came...

I've been battling some kind of flu/cold sinus thing for more than a month. When I went to the Dr. last week Thursday, he failed to give me a prescription for any of my upper respiratory stuff. Friday when I was leaving work my tonsils and adenoids were swollen, sore and rock hard. My lymph glands under my arms were also swollen and tender... and I KNEW... another weekend spent mostly in bed and resting. I have too much to be doing to keep going down HARD every other weekend.

Last night was my Grad. Class. We met in the library, and this was not like ANY library I've ever known. There were NO books! Yes, I do realize I'm a more mature student, but egads, I'm NOT ancient. I'm sitting at a monitor trying to figure out what the heck is going on, while everyone else in my class is zipping through searches, and printing out articles.

Even after the "librarian" gave her presentation (can she still be called a librarian when there aren't any books? this really bothers me; I want to put my hands on something tangible and smell the pages and printer's ink!) anyway, after the presentation, I was still frustrated, and still feeling puny from the weekend, the tears just started falling.

How embarrasing is that? A grown woman crying because of a blasted computer (I'd have liked to have blasted it straight to Mars!) I couldn't get into the database for the search because I couldn't remember my user name or password for my college, and it just got worse and worse, and the whole time I'm hearing and seeing everyone around me printing out pages and pages of articles for their summaries and research.

Finally, at long last, the librarian helped me find SOMETHING to use for my summaries. At that point I didn't care that we couldn't find the topic I wanted to research, just give me something that will fulfill the assignment requirements. And I think to myself.... I paid $1000 for THIS torture and headache?

So I survived the humiliation, got home,got in bed and read one of the articles until I started falling asleep.

This morning, as I'm getting ready for work, I discovered that I failed to put contact solution on one of my contacts last night... does it every end?
