Sick

Would you rather be mildly sick for a week or really sick for 3.5 days?

Considerations:
  • The half day of sickness would be the first, and you'd have a "normal" feeling morning before the onset.
  • "Sick" can mean a variety of things, but the main feature is "general malaise." (This may include, but is not limited to: fever, cough, sore throat, congestion, nausea, headache, lightheadedness.)
  • "Mildness" is determined by having either few or mild symptoms. (You do not get to pick the symptoms).
  • "Really"ness is determined by having many or severe symptoms (you do not get to pick them, and they would be sufficiently severe to cause you to miss some work).
  • Severe illness would disrupt your plans.
  • You could still do things while mildly ill (e.g. go to work), but you'd feel shitty.
  • If you pick severe sickness, there is a very small chance that your severe illness could be Ebola or flesh eating bacteria, which may kill you within the 3.5 days.

I'll go with the mild sickness for a week. Since I just had that happen last month anyway. Felt crappy, but couldn't afford to be really sick and actually stay home for even a day. =/

I wish you would update. This is a funny site and it would be great to see more entries. Guess that law career is keeping you too busy?
