So, to be honest, sometimes I like getting ill. I like the extra time off work huddled between warm sheets in my bed all day without feeling lazy and having everything brought to me by my loving and caring husband and family. Of course that only goes for minor illnesses like a standard flu.

So, here I am again, sick! I came down with a flu Thursday evening, it was okay on Friday, but hit me hard on Friday night when i couldn’t sleep the whole night. Thanks a lot for headaches, a sore throat, breathing problems, a cough and general aches all over my body. Also, the having to go to the hospital on a Saturday and sitting in the waiting room for a mere two hours wasn’t my exact plan for the weekend.

But it wouldn’t be so bad if I could just seize this flu and stay home until.. say, Wednesday. But I just can’t. We have a major project going on at work and since we’re already always short on staff I can’t possibly not go to work on Monday. And after that we’re flying to Chicago so there’s no way I can get sick then. So, I couldn’t have just picked a better time and have my standard extra week of staying home and being pampered?

Damn.
