Oct. 7th, 2007 03:11 pmOk, someone gave me a wonderful birthday present this year - the flu.
Y'know, the actual flu reminds you that most of the time when people complain of having the flu what they REALLY mean is "I have a bad cold" because the ACTUAL flu is a whooooole new level of horribleness. In fact, I think i will slap the next person who says "I have the flu" if they manage to a) stay upright through saying that sentence and b) can finish that sentence without a coughing fit that seeks to propel your lungs to a neighbouring county.
So I've been having down time enforced by Beloved and endless fatigue which has cut my concentration span too much. Thankfully the SPs have a very selfish and sensible view on sick days - they generally feel that losing one worker for a week is infinitely preferable to him coming into the office and spreading germs all over the place and infecting everyone else (including the SPs and infecting teh SPs is NOT allowed) and upon hearing that I was sick 9told by Beloved) informed me that I would be graciously ejected from the premises if my "scabby, oozing, leprous self" came anywhere near them.
So, now approaching revocery I'm going to be playing catch up.
