As a cartoon once wrote, “What good is sick leave if you have to spend it being sick?” I’m home today with a random thing that fortunately is showing signs of clearing up, but it’s maddening thinking about all the work I have to do both at the office and here at home and not really being able to touch it.
Ah well. As the Count says in The Princess Bride, “If you haven’t got your health, then you haven’t got anything.”
