Sick Day

I guess today is our first "being sick together" day. We both woke up feeling downright awful (that coughy/wheezy, stuffy, nauseous, freezing one minute, then way too warm the next sort of awful). After attempting to tough it out and go on with life (Spencer did make it to his one class that meets today), we both decided we that we should probably try to rest up and baby ourselves a bit so we can get through the more important second half of the week. Spencer called in sick for work and is sleeping hard right now.

I don't enjoy being sick (and really hope we aren't getting the flu), but am thankful we are at least able to take a day off to slow down and give our bodies a rest. I'm also thankful that this much needed day off didn't occur on a crucial/busy sort of day. Spencer didn't have to miss any class and it was fine for him to take today off work. At least it's fairly good timing to fall ill :)

Our sick day has consisted of naps, timid sips of orange juice, linear algebra homework for Spencer, dishcloth knitting for me, and more napping. Sounds like a pretty good sick day, minus the linear algebra.

We both think this is pretty snazy. I find myself fantasizing on how we could manage to live in such a home...I mean, we'd be comfortable and have everything we need. Haha, I realize I probably sound rather silly, but I just think this is a fun, interesting concept...
