1 day work week, Total Recall

So I drug myself to work today.  I figured I should be past the contagious stage at this point.  My energy level is better but my nose feels like it is going to fall off my face from blowing it so much and my abs feel torn up from coughing all day yesterday.  I am loaded up on cold medicine to keep the symptoms under control at the office.

Did I mention I HATE being sick?  It makes me feel worthless.  I haven’t worked out since Saturday.  I have my gym clothes packed for today.  I need to get in there, even if it is only for a token effort.

Last night I watched the new Total Recall.  I was a big fan of the original film starring Arnold and Mars.  I had heard ahead of time this reboot of the franchise was a disappointment but I was willing to take a chance.  After all, a film that includes Kate Beckensale and Jessica Biel can’t be all bad.  It wasn’t.

Sure the film was very predictable but it didn’t stop me from enjoying it overall. It gets a solid Netflix rental B rating.

I tried to be somewhat productive while home yesterday, getting a few things done that are normally reserved for weekends. That being said, the primary objective this weekend is to eliminate the illness while getting caught up on whatever work remains.  Ali is going out of town again for a couple days so I will have the girls hanging out which always adds a few coins to the smile bank.
