Sick Day!

Normally, it's fun to stay home from work. You can do whatever you want...you can do absolutely nothing if you want. It sucks when you're home and you're sick. Sick and tired...literally, as the case was today. When I'm home sick, I find that I do a lot of the things I would do on a normal day if I didn't leave the house. I play video games, I watch TV, I read (it's true...I DO read, although slowly)...but those activities don't feel fun when you're feeling less than healthy. Of course, there are different kinds of sick. There's "the flu" sick...which Katharine has...it's the flu sick that makes you sleep off and on all day long...leaves you achy. Then there's the tired sick...that sick you get when you didn't sleep the night before, which in my case was accompanied by a sore throat. A sore throat that can only be countered with Vitamin C throat drops or those extra strength throat numby drops...Chloroseptic...or something. I prefer the sore throat to the flu and head cold...unless my throat is so sore that it's all puffy...not that it looks puffy...but feels puffy. I would say in order from worst to best...if I had to be sick, I would put the sickness in this order:

1) The Flu (the full blown flu, complete with aches and pains)
2) Head Cold (that icky starts with head congestion and moves into your chest over a week period of time)
3) The Sore Throat
4) The Headache (not the nasty migrane...just a headache. I imagine the nasty migrane would be around #2

And that's all really...that's all.
