Despite all the coughing, still a pretty good day

Yep... had classes (which generally went pretty well, though I'm not looking forward to the whopping eight printmaking assignments I'll need to pull off tomorrow... in addition to at least a few parts of other classes' assignments... yeah, the homework-avalanche is definitely getting started now), talked to people, went to another dance club meeting which went fairly well despite my inability to ask anyone to dance for some reason (and the fact that I'm still sick and had to leave early because of it.)  I've found that I still remember the basic steps of country swing pretty well and even managed to pick up on some of the newer stuff this time.  I'm guessing the main problem I had with asking people is that I just felt kind of bad about the whole sick thing, and didn't want to ask someone to dance with the guy who's coughing his lungs out the whole time.

After that, I went and watched The Avengers on the giant inflatable movie screen out in the field outside the dining hall.  Was definitely worth it, even though I was still coughing pretty much the whole time (the orange juice I brought with me and the lemon/honey cough drops I mooched off of Kaitlyn definitely helped in that area, though; there were times when I actually wasn't coughing! and when I did it usually didn't hurt much if at all.)  I had wanted to see the movie back when it first came out, but never really had an opportunity to... so now I guess I've made up for that, since seeing it on that giant screen is about as close to seeing a movie in a real theater as you can get (if not better.  No mysterious sticky spots under my feet out in that field, and stuff like that.)  Anyway... yeah, that was a great movie.  Definitely worth watching even with all the coughing and slightly-chilled-by-wind-ness that was going on.   I actually haven't seen any of the individual heroes' movies yet (Captain America, Iron Man 1 & 2, Hulk, Thor, etc... yeah, I don't see a lot of movies XD), but I still didn't have any trouble following what was going on.  And it was one of those movies that made me get that weird tingly feeling on the back of my head in some scenes, which is always a good thing (...I honestly don't know what that is, but I know I tend to get that when watching movies and kind of... unconsciously wondering what's going to happen next? I guess that'd be a good way to put it.)
