Typical… now I’m sick

I have had a rough couple of weeks at work. I won’t go into the details other than to say “security reviewer”, which should give some sense of how little fun I’ve been having.

I dragged my carcass into the office for the day’s session with the Spanish Inquisition (you don’t want to call in sick when these guys are on the prowl) and did my best to maintain enough focus to answer the questions I was faced with. I was out the door and on my way home before 10:00 am. Which is a good thing, because the sinus congestion and fever were really just waiting to kick in by then.

I’ll get some rest when the week is over. Naturally, this weekend is when I was planning on starting my home office remodeling work. Even more typical: I had actually booked this week off before the security review schedule was announced, so I’ve delayed my vacation time to accommodate stressful work which does nothing to further my *real* work, such stress likely contributing to me becoming ill and disrupting my plans for my rescheduled vacation days. I couldn’t have planned any better for failure even if I’d tried.
