Sick day.
My best sick day ever happened when I was ten years old. My brother was eight and we were both sick with a cold that made us mucusy and fevery and cranky enough to stay home from school.
Both my parents worked full-time, so one of them would have to take a day off to stay home and take care of us. This particular day my dad won the honour. If we were really REALLY sick, we’d want Mom. She...

It was about as awesome as you’d think it would be.
