Every morning lately has been full of nose blowing and loogie hocking, and so I&#8217;m sure I look pretty bad.  But, I&#8217;m feeling a little better day to day, so I guess that&#8217;s what matters.<\/p>\n<p>When I got to school I found out that the two teachers I had infected had both lost their voices.  I only teach with one of them, so I had to do all the talking in her two classes today.  Sorry!<\/p>\n<p>In a somewhat embarrassing story, I think I pulled a muscle playing a video game.  That&#8217;s right &#8211; my first Wii injury.  My shoulder was a little sore yesterday, and again a little today.  It&#8217;s from swinging away at Wii baseball &#8211; when you bat during the game you hold the remote like a baseball bat and swing for the fences.  Maybe I&#8217;m getting a little carried away, but it&#8217;s just so much fun.  I&#8217;m always sweating and panting after a video game session, so I figured nothing bad could happen.  Maybe I should start doing some warmups and stretches before playing the game.<\/p>\n<p>Tonight when I got home I went to work making the ramen that we got from Yasu.  When Kuniko got home it was ready, and we ate it while Kuniko told me about her day.  I guess one of her coworker&#8217;s brothers died of lung cancer, and he was only 34.  Scary to think that someone so young could die like that.  <\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow is already Wednesday and the week is moving along at a pretty good rate.  I&#8217;m looking forward to resting up on the weekend, and maybe enjoying some fresh air outside.  Maybe a break from all these high-impact sports in the living room.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I got up this morning pretty tired out, and Kuniko even commented that I looked terrible.
