I haven't slept this much since I was, I don't know, a child. I slept almost all of Sunday, and then stayed home from work today. I spent some of the day working from home and some of the day sleeping. Then I finally went to sleep for the night at about 7pm. I slept all through the night until about 7am the next morning.
I always thought that sickness was some kind of punishment. Well, maybe punishment isn't the right word; it's more of a reminder. I almost always get sick after having several nights of little sleep. I forget sometimes to take a step back and take care of myself. The sickness is a way of reminding myself that sometimes I need to stop.
It's a lesson that is apparently harder to learn than you'd expect. I've got 25 years on you and still not sure I have it all figured out...!
