Matt and I are both sick. It’s possible that we’re both dying. It’s also possible that one or both of us has severe allergies and that one or both of us has a virus (also possible: virus + allergies). What we both really need to be doing today is lying in bed sleeping and drinking copious amounts of fluid. Because we are parents, however; Matt is at work and I am at home (in bed with a laptop and some fluids (many thanks to PBS), but definitely not sleeping). Why? Because even if we both took a “sick day” neither of us would get any rest. Ahhh, parenthood.
