...be careful what you dream for, because you just... might... get it.
The gist: I went home after a half day of work on Wednesday due to increasingly feeling like shit as the day progressed, and ended up missing Thursday and Friday as well. Went to the doctor on Thursday, and they used several big words to tell me I had what amounts to a bad cold, and that I should take it easy for a few days. So, yay, four-and-a-half day weekend for me, which has so far been spent either sleeping or sitting around in a stupor.
Even though the last two times I skipped work for sick days, I thought at the time that I did indeed feel bad enough to lay out, in comparison to this time I probably could have cartwheeled the three or so miles to work and been fine. And I don't even know how to cartwheel properly.
