viral infection
I had been wishing to get sick so that I would have a legitimate reason to be away from the office, and I got it. I was down with flu and coughing almost incessantly the past week. I haven't been that sick for years that being ill felt so depressing. I was cold, every muscle of my body was in pain, and I can't sleep long without being awakened by my itching cough. Indeed, let's be careful for what we are wishing for for we might get it.eyed at 6:30 PM
