Ah, blessed silence.

The water pipes have been humming noisily for a week, while the landlady was out of town. She got back yesterday, we flushed all the pipes out just now, and they've stopped humming. Yay! Maybe the lack of constant, grating noise at night will help me sleep a little better.

In related news, I'm very disappointed in the vicodin my doc prescribed. It's helped a little with pain, but it certainly hasn't knocked me out when I take it. Other people get so completely knocked out they sleep right through work. I wake up every two or three hours. Not fair, drugs, not fair!

Really, body? Seriously?

We've had a yucky, persistent fever/cold combo rip through the toddler room at work. And I've been front and center with the sick kids. I guess it's no surprise then, that I feel pretty yucky myself today. Low grade fever and a stuffy nose. Add that on to the computer virus last weekend and the injured arm this week, and it all equals Enough is Enough! Tonight I'm skipping the vicodin, taking the advil pm, and crossing my fingers that this thing doesn't hit me as hard as it's been hitting the kids.
