The upside of being ill

I am ill and am at home. The benefits far outweigh the negatives!!

1. I am able to rest. The longest rest I have taken in the last 3 years.

2. Lovely food, all the time. Not that I don't get good home cooked food, but since I have an acute throat/lung problem, I am able to appreciate only spicy food. Rest all tastes bitter, and so here I am, tasting the best food :)

3. TV - I am enjoying some of the best TV. Just finished watching Keith Taft, an engineer, take on the casinos, on National Geographic. Amazing program! Have a look at what they did, here and here. I saw, but could not enjoy, India and Pakistan match on Monday. Had India won, I would still not have enjoyed, for my sickness. I have seen all cartoon channels, all music vidoes, all the news, all the comedies and all of everything, except soap operas. I am crazy, but not that crazy.

4. Catching up on sleep!

5. No phone calls - I have turned off the phone and can into a slumber whenever I wish!
