I have pneumonia right now and I use it as an excuse for my laziness and not going to school. I'm not lazy, I'm sick. Other than that I get sick probably once in the winter and every month in the summer. Also when I travel. I seem to be alergic to travel. What I usually do when I'm sick is eat a lot less, drink a lot more water, shower every few hours, and make whiny noises so that people get me things.
