I’m at home. In bed. Feeling horrible. I’ve been sick all weekend.

I emailed in sick from work. Yep, I did. I sent an email. It’s way more technologically advanced than using the phone and calling in sick.

They can easily survive with me. I’ve got the best staff ever!

Worst part about this cold…it comes with an insatiable appetite. I ate an entire bag of Cheetos on Saturday night. I know, it’s an exciting life I live.

Worst part about being home today…my housekeeper is at my house today. Listen to her talk radio show. Really loud. I may have to drown it out with the sound of daytime tv up in my bedroom. Which will be another reason to make being home today suck more.

Anyhow, I must end this post and check my work emails. I have to make sure nobody else emailed in sick and left me with work to do from my lap top. In bed.

P.S. I realize after several failed jokes over IM this morning and after rereading this post, my sick funny isn’t actually funny. I apologize and appreciate your readership in the good times and the bad.

I walk into the office today and am greeted by this, from my assistant.

It involves coconut, which is my favorite. Wondering what she was up to I looked at her with a squinty eye.

She said, “Happy Boss’ Day!”

I had no idea. (Bummer for my boss!)

Major points for the coconut candy. But bigger points for the nicest card ever.

Dude, fabulous shoes! Best compliment ever.

Then I opened it up. Boom. Blown away. Adore her (even before opening this card).

She makes delegating easy and makes me smile. Thank you Assistant. Yes, the one with a large black line through your name.
