Ah, there’s nothing like having family stay with you over the holidays. Especially when you feel like crap.
‘Tis better to give than receive, and I wholeheartedly agree — especially when the receiving part refers to some kind of stomach virus. Since Thursday, I’ve been sick on and off, and it just made everything so much nicer — that’s sarcasm — when my family arrived.
I tend to appreciate quiet and solitude when I’m sick, and my house has been almost unbearably loud for the last 3 days. On top of that, I’m sleeping in my office on the futon, which just throws a wrench in my routine.
Come Tuesday, I’ll be alone again, reveling in the quiet for a little while until it dawns on me that — hey — I’m alone.
