It's not allergies

okay, so my five hour nap today leads me to believe that I have a head cold, and not allergies. I think I might have to see a specialist to deal with all of the sinus problems I've been having the past couple of years. My doctor won't give me any more antibiotics because she says I've been on them too often and it could be actually strengthening any infections I may have in the future... apparantly there's an operation that widens the sinus canals, making them less prone to infection and congestion. I need to see a specialist to find out if I need this operation. I don't wanna go.... For now I think I'll just take this vitamin supplement called Airborne that is supposed to help teachers boost their immune system. I will probably pick some up tomorrow morning. I want to start taking vitamins again anyway. I used to be really good about it, and then I stopped.I should probably get some breathe-right strips as well to wear at night, so I'm not as congested in the morning. I'm sure I'd sleep through the night if I used them.

Daryl and I went to see Idlewild this evening. It was a good movie. It was different, but different in a good way. There were people dancing in it, so it was automatically good. Other than the movie, I kind of feel like I wasted my day. I ended up only working an hour, but then came home and slept all day. I also tried to play the piano a bit, something else I've been trying to do more consistantly, but the pedal is broken and doesn't work. The piece I'm trying to learn now (trying is the key word there) is Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata. I've had the music for about eight years now, but usually get frustrated after the first five measures or so. I decided to just get over it and do it, and then the pedal broke which makes me more frustrated. I watched a PBS special on Victor Borge last weekend and was inspired. Yes he's silly, but that man can play the piano! Sometimes I dissappoint myself because I know that if I had worked harder as a child, and not quit everything when it was the slightest bit difficult, then I would have been halfway decent at the instruments I love to play. Oh well, can't go back in a machine and make myself practice more. I suppose I would have practiced music more if I hadn't spent the majority of my spare time practicing ballet. I guess you choose your battles.

I am thinking about going to the airshow this weekend. My dad used to take me and my sister when we were young, back when the Blue Angels were the Red Devils.We always had a lot of fun. But if it is raining and I still have this cold to kick, I doubt I'll be up for it. We'll see.

This is a rambling, ADD, avoiding going to bed post.
