I’ve learned a few stomach-flu related German words this week. Diarrhea is ‘durchfall’ which literally means ‘to fall through.’ So logisch, this German language. “Kotzen” is to puke. Anyway, now you’re all set in case you visit and get sick. 🙂
We’ve all taken a turn with it since Monday and since I’ve been feeling so funky, my thoughts have reached out to other things that generally make me want to vomit. Like, canned green beans. (The fresh ones are fine.)
Another one that comes to mind is student teaching. I’ve been reflecting on that a lot, lately, and I’m not sure why.
At the time, I was twenty-four years old. Talking to a class full of students terrified me. And, you know, that’s sort of a thing you need to feel okay with if you’re in the profession.
