I received a call on Tuesday regarding who does testing for leprosy and only 1 lab in Baton Rouge, LA - can you believe that?<br /><br />I *hawk, cough* took two days (yes, I was on vacation all last week) this week to recoup, clean house, roam the mall, and catch a movie - none of the stuff I can do on the weekend - thanks to my 300+ hours of sick time!LaShaunehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00926161882767198480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-78587584441410243872009-09-24T08:34:06.343-04:002009-09-24T08:34:06.343-04:00Leprosy..

Work can get annoying and being sick can get annoying, so I always try to go to work when I'm sick. On the days when I'm feeling healthy, I sometimes stay at home because that's also a good thing. It makes sense to me! Say it's a "personal day" and call it good.couchSpudhttp://www.couchspud.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-28184169072194028062009-09-23T19:06:33.281-04:002009-09-23T19:06:33.281-04:00When I was in college, my Business Law teacher use...When I was in college, my Business Law teacher used to always say "Take your sick days and go to the beach."Rahimhttp://www.wellnessbymanymeans.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-50255996118956753632009-09-23T18:47:44.517-04:002009-09-23T18:47:44.517-04:00My mother likes to tell her employer that she cann...My mother likes to tell her employer that she cannot come into work due to a flare-up of her anal glaucoma.<br /><br />What is anal glaucoma, you ask?

And I loved your list of 10 things.<br /><br />And sorry for the lameness, it's been really busy lately and yet I'm still a slacker, so something had to give.<br /><br />Diana, I think part of not getting sick (except for the occasional bout of leprosy) is just luck. But I've heard having adequate sleep and Vitamin D levels are two things that help. And I think certain foods like garlic and green tea etc are immune boosters; I can never remember because it's usually stuff I eat anyway. (And to be honest, I do sometimes get a mild cold once every few years, but never anything severe enough to legitimately skip work over, damn it).Crabby McSlackerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12108791388350253344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-58656507112829751802009-09-23T07:56:43.656-04:002009-09-23T07:56:43.656-04:00I am actually sick!
