How to Have a Great Sick Day

 What I thought was my first common cold of the season turned out to be a full blown Strep infection, just in time for Thanksgiving! Luckily, my Wednesday afternoon rehearsal with the highschoolers I'm teaching was canceled (I adore them, but I was feeling so lousy!) and I finally got to relax. I bundled up in my snuggliest clothes, hopped onto my mom's gigantic couch, and let her make me some hearty chicken soup that I ate in front of the fire. Ahhh. I'll just  go ahead and say it, if I have to be sick, there's no better place than Mama's house. This is what my ideal sick day looks/feels like (the small comforts really do make me feel better, especially when there's a onesie involved!):

Like Crazy

The trailer alone made me cry, so I should say RIGHT NOW, do not see this movie unless you are down with crying in public! But seriously, Like Crazy is a really good, terribly bittersweet first- love story. Long love story short: Timing is everything, location is everything, communication is everything...there are so many things that are everything! Can we make it work? Of course! I'm not sure! Gah, who knows?!  
Do see, do bring a buddy, don't wear mascara :)
