Irony

My official boss (ie from the temp agency rather than my day to day supervisor) just came in and cheerfully informed me I won a $50 American Express Gift Certificate because I was their only temp employee for the month of January not have any unscheduled absences.

The irony comes in the fact that I have a loud, gooey, obnoxious cold in my head which shows every sign of laughing at me and lingering for the rest of my natural life - and here I am working. (I suppose it would have been even more ironic if I had called in sick today, but having just have almost two weeks of unpaid vacation, and not getting paid for sick days, I am sitting here feeling and apparently sounding like a bucket full of snot and gravel.) Heh. That's all I have to say..

*sigh* mine's being less bad (and less obviously excusing) but just as obstinate. Nonetheless, good news on the gift certificate!*hugs with healthy vibes*

Thank you - but didn't we decide this morning we should see if we could make them cancel out or something? *G* When will you send yours on over?
(BTW, do you want us to send your housekeys back?)
