Sick Day

This morning,

I woke up at the usual time,

feeling completely awful.

I just knew I had a fever.

So I took my temperature.

101.9˚.

I hesitated to call in sick,

because I will likely have to take unpaid leave.

But, I obviously couldn't go in

with a temp of 101.9.

So, I have spent today resting,

drinking fluids, and resting some more.

Sick days are no fun at all.
