Poll question: Favorite thing about being sick?
I was in bed all day yesterday with horrific body aches. I did, however, enjoy the fact that I lost a couple of lbs. from not eating anything. What's the best thing about being sick?

1. Missing school, although making up the work is hellish and dumb.
Sleeping forever has a lot going for it as well. :D

3. I am so not the right person to ask this question right now
I just got over a six week bout of pneumonia and sinus infection. I liked NOTHING about being sick.

And now I have to do all the things I neglected when I was sick (terrible how stuff stacks up when one is not paying attention to it.)

4. Other.
Getting the opportunity to curl up with a good book and trip on cold medicine.

8. Sleeping it off once you feel better ...
... I always console myself when I feel a migraine coming on, how good I'm going to sleep once it's over.

It usually takes me about 2 days to recoup from one, and it's the deepest most whole-body sleep I get because it seems like every inch of my body fights the migraine.
