I am super bad at being sick. I have around 80 sick leave days to prove it. The Dad is good at being sick. He lounges and takes medicine and enjoys the experience. I become more and more grumpy until I am ready to commit a crime with a butter knife.

Today I am sick. I have a stupid cold/sinus thing and I have stayed in bed all day. The Dad has brought me food in bed and now he is force-feeding me Thera-Flu. To show him my gratitude, I have thrown things and called him names and whined.

Really, how does one learn to be good at being sick?
