My calendar tells me I didn't post this Friday that just went by. ( Had flu. MucinexDM is as good as they say. Details below only if you're interested. )
Today is my Monday at work, and we are seriously discouraged from calling in sick on a day in conjunction with your days off. Which I did only a few weeks ago because I had a cold (that I somewhat suspected might be strep throat, but turned out not to be). So, today I trundled my butt in to work, spoke to the manager immediately, she told me I looked like crap, and I filled out a sick slip and went home. Literally drove 30 minutes each way to stay only 15 minutes because of this crazy policy.
Anyway, long short is I am feeling better, but not well yet. Will keep on pushing fluids and staying warm.
Oh, and I DID have the flu shot. Back in September, sure, so maybe it's worn off a bit? I'm actually thinking this might have been much worse if I had not.
