I never said that they could camp out on my body

[cyrano]

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.
