terryclothI've been sick for nearly a week now, so why can't I stay home and rest?
The short answer is that when it's time for me to make the decision whether or not to stay home, I feel fine. In the morning, after my shower, I don't feel particularly sick... which means I'd feel kind of cheesy staying home from work (or whatever) because I've got a cold. As the day goes on, I get worse and worse, but I don't really feel totally wiped out until it's after work and I'd normally be relaxing and doing things I enjoy.
This is the same pattern colds have always followed for me for years and years and years. It's like a conspiracy between my employer and the viruses that infect me to cause maximum misery.
At least I have an excuse to dope myself up on ibuprofen. @.@
