Aw, jeez, Vicki!  Take care of yourself, okay?  My boss has been fighting 
this crud for nearly three weeks now.  He keeps dragging himself out of bed 
too soon and then relapsing.  I nagged him to go to the doctor but he was too 
stubborn to go.  Everybody who's had it says that it just won't go away.
