Just a couple weeks ago I said to Oz, "Isn't it great how I haven't gotten sick since I got out of school. No more hanging around those germy computer science students has done wonders for my health."
So now I have a sinus infection.
I'm sucking down decongestants and chamomile tea. Since I have deadlines and no sick time, I'm working through the grogginess. On the bright side, when I reached my target for the day early at, oh, 12:30 or so, I got to stop working. Instead of getting ahead, I went upstairs and crawled under a blanket with a box of tissues and a Georgette Heyer novel. I also drank berry tea and nibbled on Belgian chocolate.
I'm sure you're all really sympathetic now.
