Oh no! you've woken up with a nasty, nasty cold today! do you...

A - pop pills until you can't feel a thing than go off to work, where you can share

B - Moan, loudly and frequently until someone comes to your rescue with soup and blankets

C - retreat to the bedroom with painkillers muttering dark and evil things about anyone who might disrupt your sleep

I'm a C - woe to the fool who tries to fuss over me after I take two cats and go to bed. If your name isn't tylenol, I don't want to hear from you. Leave-me-alone!

I married a B - you can imagine what flu and cold season is like in our house!

Definitely a C! When I feel bad, I go to bed. DH is allowed to check on me from door, preferably just seeing if I'm breathing but not talking to me. LOL Have always been considered a good patient, even in hospital because I just want them to let me sleep. Luckily, nothing's ever involved physical therapy. That might really interfere with my sleep and heal routine!

Probably A. If I didn't go to work with a cold, I would miss a lot of days. In kindergarten it's hard not to catch a few colds a year.

BTW half my class is sick, and so is one of my aides.

Sigh. Taking lots of vitamins!!!!

I would like to be a "C" and sometimes get that way but most often I do the "A" thing for just a cold. However, if it is a nasty bug- I'm definitely a "C".

I am definetely C. With only about a year's worth of sick time, calling in is no big deal. Also, having to put up with everyone else rag on you for getting them sick is not worth it. Pass the drugs, give me the kitties and the clicker, and leave me alone!

I usually pop the pills and go to work. Waiting on someone to help and baby me would not really work as the cats and dog don't know what to do and there is no other human here.

The above is for just a cold. If really sick I am a C. Don't bother me, don't look at me, don't touch me unless you want to draw back nubs for fingers. Like a cat, I prefer to hide and wait to die or get better
