How to have a rough night.

Recipe:

1. Be diagnosed with strep throat in the afternoon. You can be on antibiotics, but not long enough for them to have a positive effect, pain-wise.
2. Do not get home until 8:30pm due to Darwin Day celebrations at the university (you started work at 7am)
3. Work until past midnight writing an exam for your A&P class.
4. Just as you are going to bed, have your daughter throw up due to excessive candy consumption at the preschool Valentine's Day party.
5. Take a good hour to finally get your daughter back in bed after said vomiting event.
6. Sleep poorly due to said strep throat causing throat and ear problems.
7. Get up at 6am to teach your 8am class.

FWIW, Paige was bright-eyed and bushy-tailed this morning. And somehow, I'm feeling pretty good and am in a good mood. Except for the whole strep thing, but even that seems to be subsiding thanks to the wonders of penicillin!
