Being sick has its perks...

[NewWaveChick1981]

OK, I didn't wish the flu on myself and wish I felt better. That's the truth. :patriot: However, since my husband was sick with it too, it got us out of going to his Bridezilla niece's wedding on Saturday, and it has now gotten me out of a business trip this week with my asshole boss and another poor schmuck of a coworker. :woohoo: I was dreading this trip---I cannot imagine anything less interesting and more annoying than going on a trip with my boss. :( I see him in person every three or four months, which is more than enough, so I'd definitely rather be lying feverish on my couch blowing my nose than traveling with him. :yoiks:

Now you see part of the reason why want a new job. :) I hate Corporate America. Give me a college or university any day of the week...

1. This is funny...

...they just had a huge contest, where I work...and guess what the winners got? A trip to a Caribbean destination with managers. :wtf:

That's right...:wtf: is what I said too. No...that is not your fever talking...that really happened!

[NewWaveChick1981]

2. OMG...

:rofl: That's like a prize you win in hell. You get to to go a fun place, but it's awful while you're there... :spray: I hope for your sake you lost... :P

[Haole Girl]

8. Yes, I wouldn't "win" anyway, in the department I work in...

...the whole thing was idiotic, to say the least. The weirdest part? People practically fell over themselves cheating to win. Yes, it's time for another one of these: :wtf:

[NewWaveChick1981]

9. ROFL!

That sounds like some of the "prizes" that are offered to us periodically. The suckup in our region won a trip last year for being Kissup of the Year or something like that...and she got to go to a seminar in Cancun with.... you guessed it.... other suckups from other regions!!! :P :rofl: Sounds like you and I are wise to steer clear of "winning"... :rofl:

NewWaveChick1981 blah blah blah lying feverish on my couch blah blah blah

:patriot:


Seriously, get better soon, m'kay?

[NewWaveChick1981]

6. LOL!

Thanks, kay... :) I hope it goes away soon... but not TOO soon. :P

:hi: :*

[speedoo]

12. Now see here.

You are supposed to be feeling better by now. Many of us said we wanted that. Do you not care about what we want? Are you unaware of the fact that there has been almost no naughtiness here, recently?

Sheez.

Seriously, come on now. I don't like it when a friend is sick.:hug: :loveya:

[NewWaveChick1981]

13. OK, OK, I'll stop being sick as soon as I can....

:hug: I realize I'm being selfish. :( I'll stop---I promise.

:P And seriously, thank you. :* :loveya: There will be some fine naughtiness this week---I promise! :D

14. You give me fever

In the morning
Fever all through the night

:D

I'm happy you're seeing the (considerable) bright side here, and your skirmish with pathogens let you dodge those two rubber bullets, but I hope you're back in perfect form very soon. :hug:

Be weller!

[NewWaveChick1981]

15. Why, thank you, Forrest...

:hug: LOVE the rubber bullet analogy! :rofl:

I appreciate it! :loveya: :*

[Jamastiene]

16. I was thinking you meant a different kind of sick, as in

perverted.

Sorry to hear you are down with the flu. Get well soon.

[NewWaveChick1981]

17. Well, that too...

:P But I have a virus... :( Thanks, Jama... :D
