I never said that they could camp out on my body

One of the things that will top my 'things that suck' list will be Getting Sick. I'm considering calling work and telling them I won't be in tomorrow morning. The itchy throat I had this morning has progressed to sore and feeling swollen, accompanied by painful sinuses and lots of mucus and congestion.

Edit
There. I've done it--I called in sick.
This makes me feel very defeated.
