  I am home from work today. This cold is just kicking my ass. It feels like my head is going to explode. I actually feel no worse than I did yesterday, but my boss and several other people in my department 'encouraged' me to stay home - mostly with phrases like 'Dude, stay home tomorrow! I don't want to get sick! ' and 'Are you sure you urlLink don't have that urlLink Asian flu thingy that's urlLink going around ? ' Okay, I get the hint, I can use the sleep too.
