You know what I hate?

I hate feeling sick, for one. I hate feeling sick during the holidays, on my vacation (such as it is).

But do you know what I really hate?

I hate the fact that the sniffles don't count as being deathly ill.

Screw this! If I'm going to be sick during Christmas, I want to be in a goddamn hospital with the plague, or at least smallpox or something!

But no. All I get is sniff-sniff-sniffles.

I hate this.
