Hey Todd, don't feel bad! It takes a lot of work and practice to become adept at sight-reading. The more you play, the better you get.
A large portion of it can be broken down into a few areas: recognizing rhythmic patterns, interval patterns, dynamics, and stylistic attributes.
For example, well-known trumpet artist Wayne Bergeron (www.waynebergeron.com) has played so much music for so long that he can pretty much nail it the first time. That's one reason why he's one of L.A.'s top studio musicians, where this is a basic requirement. (Another reason is that he's a likeable guy.)
