Link passed on by someone on the Bujold ML. It's awesome.

As promised, I called in sick to work today (emailed in last night) and am considering the same for tomorrow. Felt considerably better today than yesterday, but still not well, and am getting very tired of my ears being blocked.

My impulsively offered suggestion for running Vorkosigan GURPS next Kapcon seems to have triggered some enthusiasm. I think I know the source books well enough - now to read the player manual and come up with a suffiently fiendish plot.

Dude, sometimes you just need the REST to fully recover -- at least tomorrow you'll be a lot better able to do work stuff instead of being barely functional today and wishing you weren't there. *supports your decisions*

Slightly guilty. Not enough that I actually think I should have gone to work, but I have worked and survived in this state before, which is where the guilt comes from.

Actually taking time off when I need to is one of my goals for this year. And hey, I'm actually succeeding so far.

Ahh, yes, that guilt I know EVER so well. I am glad you trod on it sensibly, then. And that is a really, really good goal.

Yeah. I didn't do so well at it last year.

This year, the flatmates have permission call me in sick if they really feel that I shouldn't be going to work, and I'm insisting on it.

Mrrrh. :/ But using the flatmates for that seems like a really good plan, yes.
