My Life as a Movie

I've been trying to be peppy and positive today, but it seems that the best I can manage is bitchy and cynical. If my life was a horror movie this would be great news, as the cheerleaderesque chic always dies a terrible, bloody death... but, really, I was hoping for more of a romantic comedy.

Physical updates are less than happy. I was actually sick. Thankfully, it was/is just a cold and it seems to be clearing up. Of course, it made my day when I walked into the classroom to hear one of my students say "Wow... you look even sicker than last week, Ms. Justice!" Great... Thanks, dear. Just what I wanted to hear. I also seem to have developed mouth sores. Nothing visible, but my tongue feels like I just chewed on a mouthful of razors. Or ate too many kiwis. Same difference. Either way, it's unpleasant and painful and makes eating a chore.

Damned if I'm going to let this ruin my night, though. I just bought some horribly unhealthy fast food (sorry, Dad), and I plan on watching a movie while I rip inappropriate ads out of magazines (for classroom reasons. What were you thinking?). If I feel real crazy, I might even break out the sparkling wine that Corinne bought two days ago.
