Dying - send cupcakes...
I'm off work sick today. I should have called in yesterday but I had a couple of meetings I couldn't miss, so I soldiered on. /cue for sympathy
But today I had a clear schedule so I called in with a clear conscience. I am now curled up on the sofa watching The Great Gatsby with a furry Florence Nightingale on either side of me. I'm not sure they're doing much to alleviate my symptoms, but it's appreciated.
My head aches, my bones ache, even my eyeballs ache. My throat is sore, my voice is going and I have a horrible painful cough. But no congestion or sneezing, so thank heaven for small mercies. I just need cupcakes now. It is a proven fact that cupcakes have miraculous health-giving properties. Honest.
