Feeling better

Two aspirin and a night's sleep seem to have done for the apparent head cold. Completely.

At work this morning, my de facto supervisor praised me for my reliability. And when I told him that I'd been sneezing all of last evening and considered staying home if I'd not felt better when I got up, he suggested that I might as well be miserable in Port Washington, and be paid for it, as be miserable at home for free.

A supervisor on an hourly job once suggested that I go home when I was obviously sniffling. I said, "Pay me sick leave and I will."
