It all worked out, with a few extra coughs and the help of a water bottle. Charlie was too good: He got right in the car (with his laptop, backpack, and blankets) and we drove back to Jersey City, only to find a car (with an NY license plate) blocking the parking place right in front of the building where I was in, so I found myself driving my car backwards up a fairly steep one-way street with cars parked on both sides and traffic coming down...... Charlie had a soda and looked at photos and was very patient (and the event went really well, with me only coughing a few times). Jim took Charlie out to McDonald's and was I glad to just be home! Thanks for so much good will!

Thanks for so much good will!

I can't stand days like that, though that's gotten a whole lot better in terms of personal life management. Cliff Oooh… my sympathies, really.

Yeah, probably. Hope that you feel better, and that someone that he likes can sit with Charlie during the reception while he does something fun.

I hope you are okay and have a chance to rest/pace yourself. Whatever this bug is, it seems to hang in there. "Then I go to explain to a colleague why I won’t be able to make a 4 p.m. reception and am told that if I’m not there, we should just cancel the reception—-and there are alumni/ae invited and students have been looking forward to it." Kind of a compliment as long as you aren't contagious (a little bit of snark). Get well soon. Oh Kristina, that’s a busy day! I hope you are okay and have a chance to rest/pace yourself.
