Confessions of a Fugitive Mind

Under the Weather
I called in sick yesterday because of a lovely cold that seemed to suck the life right out of me on Tuesday and Wednesday. So I stayed at home resting, medicating, and drinking plenty of fluids in the hope that I would feel better today. And it worked.
For all of an hour.
I felt refreshed and uncongested when I woke up. I actually wanted to go to work, if only to leave myself less behind for next week. But by the time I got out of the shower I realized that I was breathing more easily because my sinuses were holding everything back. But I persevered, found clothes that didn't come out of the massive pile of laundry, cleaned off my car, and made it to work. Now I'm dealing with a massive sinus headache, a sore throat, and a bunch of phone calls to make. This is so not the way I pictured my productive Friday.
