Sucks to be ill

I'm at home today 'cause I'm sick. Again. This sucks.

I wasn't able to sleep most of the night, then I slept most of the morning. The front of my throat is killing me and it's pretty painful to swallow. Maybe someone with training will take a look at my throat again... and bring popsicles! You know, 'cause they need those popsicle sticks tongue depressors to check out if you're well or not.

Maybe it's about time to make that tea I was "talking"[1] about an hour ago. I just wish that the telemarketers would stop calling...

[1] I can only speak with great difficulty.
