The Positive Side of Illness

I realized something over the last few days.  Despite the fact that I've been sick, and thus, whining about being sick, there are still some positive things that come with it.

For instance, I ended up getting to de-stress, since I obviously spent most of my time laying around and sleeping.  I also got to catch up on some reading, and played a little bit of my video game, which I hadn't had time to touch in over a week.  Best of all, I got lots of time to relax with my boyfriend, who has been a total doll the last few days.  Although I've been in something that I like to call "zombie-mode", and have been half asleep the whole time, Derek's spent a lot of time the last few days sitting with me, or cuddling with me on the couch.

Basically, what I'm trying to say is, although I hate how crappy I've been feeling, there are some positive sides to being sick as well.

The worst part is really that I haven't managed to shake the bug, and I have to go back to work tomorrow, for a closing shift, followed by an opening shift... And that opening shift also happens to be on my birthday...

But I'm going to try not to dwell on that and get negative, because focusing on the positive is a lot nicer.  So, for now, I'm just going to be grateful for the people in my life who have been putting up with me the last few days.
