only not really because I have an excuse.

Felt almost-sick yesterday (scratchy-sore throat plus exhaustion), which is part of what contributed to my decision to end nano where I was. Went to bed early-- I was ready to go to bed by 7:30, which is a bad sign, and I ended up going to bed when my nighttime PA got here, which I almost never do-- and slept for something ridiculous like eleven hours.

...still felt almost-sick this morning (scratchy-sore throat and a bit of croakiness and exhaustion), so made some strategic plans, like a) emailing my choir director to let him know that while I would be at rehearsal [performance is on friday and this was the second to last rehearsal, and the first time we'd had instruments/soloist] I would not be singing, and b) telling the evening group that I flat-out wouldn't be at rehearsal at all.

Throat was feeling less scratchy by rehearsal time, thanks to lots of water and vitamin C and stuff; but I know from past experience that if I (over)sing at this stage, I will lose my voice completely. Did that with a performance a few years ago and don't mean to repeat the mistake.

So I was good and didn't sing; and now I have hot lemon-ginger tea (BEST EVER OMG) and books to read and plans to go to bed early.

...the over-responsible side of me is whining a bit because I am Not Doing My Job Zomg. But I am not paying any attention to that, because what's the worst they can do, fire me?

(the chorus director won't, and if the other group does it's no big loss because I've been half wanting to quit for a while.)
