sick sandra flies to DC

I have had this really stubborn fever/sore throat for over a week now. I even had to stay home from work last week because I was so sick.. and I usually never get sick. Well, I usually never get injured but 2007 turned out to be a year where I took a couple of trips to the hospital so I guess: 'I usually...' isn't always reliable. I am starting to feel better and I think I wasn't snoring that bad last night. My poor husband has had to put up with a sick and extremely loud snoring. I did take it pretty easy this weekend. Friday after work Matt and I met up with Sara and Carrie for pizza and a glass of wine and we headed home around 8.30 pm. Saturday, I started to feel better so we went to Hairbanger's ball. It is a cover band that really plays the best 80s hair band music. We went a rocked out.. did not really help my sore throat but I had a blast. On Sunday I actually played dodgeball for the first time this season. It was the play offs and off course the team chose to do it blindfolded. It was a lot of fun because the other team was really nice. We actually teamed up with them and stayed for another game and tried to help them win in the final. Alas, no win.. I guess sometimes the bad guys win. After that we went to Augie's (a bar) where Matt drank one (or 12 beers) too many so I had to escort him home. Today I flew out to Washington D.C. We have our annual meeting. I am staying at the Hilton only a block away from the white house so when I got here I had some hours to kill went out for a run along the 'national mall'. The sun is shining it is around 60F and the scenery is awesome. I wish I could be a professional running route finder.. you know go from city to city and explore where the best routes to run are. That would be sweet.
