as someone who is on the end of the "sic phone" taking those calls i can tell immediately who is genuinely sick and who is an asshat. trying to fill spots with a limited casual pool :down:

There's a pretty good attitude about sick leave in our team... no one wants to catch anyone else's germs after all, so the general feeling is, if you're sick, stay home and keep it to yourself... that's why we've got the leave, after all. :yippie:

Mother always said to starve a cold and feed a fever, or was it feed a cold and starve a fever? :huh: hmm, I recommend lots of lying around and eating whatever you want, even if it's bucket loads of lollies and junk. If you're craving it then that's what your body needs :wink:

Is Phail Collins on the team? You guys are doing really terribly right now.
 
We'll be right.

Are NZ going to beat England? The poms are so fucking hot and cold. And what the hell has happened to Flintoff, Panesar, etc? Are they dead or something?

In terms of heaviness, the band really encompasses a vast spectrum. Collapse The Light Into Earth is one I should send you - very melancholic, soft song. Then you've got quite heavy riffage on songs like Orchidia and Anesthetize. Which is what really keeps things interesting for me.

Heavy riffage :rockon:

And I didn't think you thought anything bad, just perhaps that I didn't like the harder stuff, which is not the case :wink:

I took sick leave, yes :wink:

So my day was laaaazy.

Hey Ali, do you think you'll be at work on Thursday? Just checked my schedule and I found I do have my 3:15 lecture this Thursday, just not the 4:15 tute with the Maj. So I'm trying to decide what to do. It'll be a stinker of a day. Go away, summer! It's autumn now!

That's pretty much exactly what I did :lol:

I had a nasty flu once and ate a personal record-sized meal at the local Chinese place... :drool: Never eaten so much in one sitting in my life... and I was still hungry after the pineapple fritter! :reject:
