Home sick

Called in crook today, which I really don't like doing. But it was either go to work and annoy everyone by blowing my nose a million times and coughing a billion (and exaggerating a zillion!), or confine myself to quarters and hope to knock out a cold that's been ducking and weaving since Monday.

Nostalgia: Whenever I was too ill to attend junior high, my favourite way to spend the day was rewatching a taped-off-TV copy of "Raiders Of The Lost Ark" and re-reading a stack of old "Mad" magazines. If my stomach wasn't upset, I'd beg Mum (or sometimes Dad) to get us pies from the bakery.
