Well, today was rather a surprise. Last night, I went to bed feeling quite well. But during the night I had a lot of trouble with sinus drainage (not so unusual for me) but, more importantly, with a stomachache. By morning there was no doubt that I had some kind of gastrointestinal bug, including some pretty bad diarrhea. I felt a little better when I got up, but still not good, so I contacted Berlitz and took a sick day.
In the middle of the day I felt a little better and even ate a bowl of bran flakes. But as the afternoon wore on I was back to feeling rather bad. So I wrote to Berlitz and told them I'd be out tomorrow, as well.
Tomorrow, unless I feel REALLY terrible I'll also need to go to the doctor so I can get that all-important doctor's note for Berlitz. It's a little strange -- if I feel well enough to go OUT, then I probably could teach my lessons, which only involve sitting at home. But without the letter, Berlitz is sure that people are not really sick, I guess.
