Plagued.

I am really sick. It's some sort of horrible cold. Going to work these past two days has been hell on ice.

The on ice part taken quite literally, as you can imagine.

But in about an hour and a half, I'll start my five-day weekend. It will be filled with rest, and presents, and hopefully less coughing.

Also, don't title an e-mail something that you just pound on the keyboard to make (in this case, srfgaert) unless you're absolutely sure it's not going to be forwarded a zillion times.
