The late shift, the chest cold, and the enduring value of chicken and chips

[the_gwenzilliad]

I had to work later than usual tonight. Not that I'm complaining: it's the only night of the week I ever have to work late, and I don't always have to work late. But the body makes habits, you know? My body's habits are incompatible with managing somehow to sleep until 9am except on days where I don't have to get up at all

I hope you feel better soon!

(And it's good to hear from you...)

Go to the doctor, get whatever tablets are prescribed. I'd suggest time off sick if you need it, but if you really can't do that, tell the doctor so. Or throw the "signed off" bit of paper away.
Yes, this would be a stupid thing to do, but I've done it myself in the past.

What she said. Especially if treating it now (while working, if necessary) means it doesn't get any worse and knock you out for longer later.

And as Bill said, it's good to hear from you.

Yes, this. I'm on antibiotics for a sinus infection for the second time this year, but I can't say I like the alternatives.

Take care of you! We like you.

Take care of yourself. If you don't want to do it for your own sake, do it for the people who love you!

Feel better soon.
