Иуштп ышсл шы тщ агтюююю lol that's suppose to say "Being sick is no fun"... I just forgot to change my keyboard...

Sorry I didn't update last night.  I really didn't do anything interesting and since I'm not really suppose to talk about work, I just decided not to post.  Today wasn't any better, I actually didn't go to work.  I woke up this morning with a horrible migraine and really queasy stomach.  After I talked to my supervisor I curled up on the couch under three blankets (I was SO cold) and didn't move for five hours.  I was slightly sore when I woke up. Other than that I've just been lying on the couch watching SVU and catnapping here and there.

Last night I was able to help my work sponsor escort visitors from the gate to one of the town houses for a reception.  It was pretty interesting because most of the visitors were from Middle Eastern embassies.  I know in Russia, it's mostly custom for men not to shake a woman's hand unless she offers it.  Well I also remembered that some cultures forbid men form having contact with women at all.  I don't know  exactly where this is practiced or in which cultures, but there was a visitor that introduced himself to ERic and myself and shook hands with Eric, but I could see a moment of hesitation when I put my hand out.  He shook it, probably out of politeness, but I realized maybe I had put him in a hard position.  Needless to say, I only shook hands that were offered to me...

Well I'm going to head to bed.  Still feel under the weather, but I'm going to try and make it into work tomorrow, although if I'm not feeling well I may not last... hopefully I'll feel better...
