I'm caught in a similar situation; came up with a cold recently, and yet I still have to go to work and take care of kids even though I'm feeling pretty cruddy. Normally, I wouldn't go into work while potentially contagious, but unfortunately my sub can't fill in for me because she's suffering from procrastinating for finals, so there's nobody else but me. Fun.

When I'm sick, I looooove to drink tea. I like drinking tea normally but while sick I'll have a couple cups a day. I like putting in a series I've had lying around for a while and just watching it all day, I love SLEEPING, I love putting in hours upon hours into a good RPG.

I wish I could do all of that right now, instead of worrying about upcoming hours of screaming kids to further invoke my headache.
