I spent Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday last week laid up due to my gout toe. Over the last 48 hours, however, the situation has greatly improved such that I think my toe is back to around 80% capacity, and I look forward to returning to work tomorrow.
I hate taking sick time; that’s because I’m the type of guy who wants (and doesn’t mind) working very hard to get ahead. I actually got cabin fever this stint, something I haven’t experienced in quite a while.
Sigh....
