The worst thing for me about taking a sick day is spending the hour surrounding that decision in paroxysms of self-doubt and waffling. Now that I've decided to stay home today (can't get comfortable; can't grip much; can't type much) and write to my doctor about changing my meds, I'm just mildly guilty. No reason to be -- it's a slow day at work and I have LOTS of sick time saved up because I rarely take it -- but still.

Don't know what I'll end up doing today. It took me three sittings to compose this post. I think I'll take advantage of the fact that I can't really sit comfortably for longer than a few minutes, and flit about the house doing easy housework tasks (like culling the kitchen gadgets and going through junk mail) that I never get around to.

Me too! But yesterday I told myself the clearest sign I'm sick enough to stay home is the paroxysms of self-doubt and guilt (which is what I feel for missing work).
