Never been so happy to see a virus in my life.

Oooh influenza! Usually I get sick during vacation (see Christmas 2008 and Christmas 2007) but this time, woo-hoo! Sick during work time and during the week! And not just a cold, honest to goodness flu. The kind where Thursday, Friday, and Saturday were spent mostly in bed watching movies and listening to the NCAA tourney. Wowzahs, seriously. I was so sick of writing about the immune system and then wham-o! My immune system entirely gave out. Guess it got sick of the thesis itself. It couldn't have been better timing if I had walked down the hall at lab and gotten a whiff of influenza straight out. Of course I still had to take care of cells, etc. but the rest of it, freedom! Yay for illness.

Is it bad if it sort makes me happy when PhD seeking students get sick and have to stop going to lab for a bit?
