NSNR vent: DH has a man cold

And he's driving me crazy. I just got an email with two paragraphs about said cold. 

Apparently he's not so sick that he couldn't have a couple of beers and stay up until 1:00am, but he is sick enough that I have to listen to a daily rundown of his symptoms.  Ugh.  

Feel free to add your own vent :)

    I dislike the man cold.

    I remember the first time five years ago I started working and DH said I should take the day off to take care of him. So I told myself he is a grown adult that can take care of himself. I never did take any sick leave for DH because I only have a certain amount of days. I only call in if DS is sick.

    Heck if I have a migraine I can't even have a man like cold myself. I have to take the advil migraine and move on.

  • If he were really sick, like coughing up a lung or something, I would totally be sympathetic, but it's just a little summer cold. We went to a BBQ yesterday, and the man had two beers and ate like a horse.

    He's a little bit of a hypochondriac, too, so sometimes he thinks he's getting sick when it's really just allergies or his throat is sore from snoring his face off all night.

  • You have my major sympathies.  The man cold is the absolute worst.  Seriously, DH wants to go to work after a major injury this weekend.  Yet, when he has a cold he can't even get out of bed to get a drink of water.


    To my boys:  I will love you for you Not for what you have done or what you will become I will love you for you I will give you the love The love that you never knew

    We need to hold a 5K or perhaps sell a ribbon. What would be the color of man cold? Puce perhaps?
    Yes!  The Man Cold 5K--we could sell t-shirts that say "I probably shouldn't run when I'm feeling like this" or "Does my forehead feel hot?"
