I'm not in elementary school any more

Yesterday, Susan drove me to Wake Forest for another checkup and a load of shots.  (She drove because I have managed to catch an evil cold which has rendered me more moronic than usual.)  On the way there and back, we both developed a deep loathing for people driving large pickups which seem to come with a "road ownership certificate".  I got about 2 hours sleep last night, crumbling into bed and going to sleep almost instantly but waking up at 12:30 a.m. convinced that was all the sleep I needed.  I beg to differ.
Anyway, I have a comparatively busy day at school today.  I suspect some of the robotics class will need a hand getting some of their monsters operational while I want to start working with the programming class on making their programs idiot-proof (I wonder if I am allowed to use that term). My upper arms hurt from the barrage of 8 shots I had yesterday (the nurses work in pairs, shoving their needles in at the same time from opposite sides which gets the whole thing over pretty quickly.  Number one task for today is definitely making sure that both classes have enough to do in my absence tomorrow if I decide to crawl under a rock.
My numbers are a mixture of good and bad - all the basic ones like red & white blood cells are lower than they should be which, perhaps, accounts for why I feel so tired much of the time.  However, I am assured that the really critical one, my dread m-spike, is down from 3 to 1.2 - it needs to be zero before I can say I have really kicked this bugger but it's a step in the right direction.
