Writer's Block: Sick day

Not doted on, per se, but present. I don't like being totally alone when I'm sick; it actually scares me quite a bit when I'm really sick because I worry about what would happen if I fainted, etc. Sure, it's nice to have someone tuck me in and serve me hot soup and tea, but I really just want the assurance that someone will notice if things take a turn for the worse.
I prefer to stay home if I'm sick. I'd even stay hold for a cold if it were acceptable to do so. (We've only got so many sick days, after all, and some things-- like my Japanese class in college-- just can't be missed without severe repercussions). I definitely stay home for things like the flu, strep, bronchitis, or anything that makes me vomit. If it's contagious, you're an asshole not to stay home. I don't care how much of a hardass you think you are; it's people like you that get the rest of us sick!
