An etiquette question

When you have to travel but are coughing up wads of phlegm with no sleep and eyes swollen to here. Do you get on the plane? Postpone (which, for a weekend conference, basically means sucking up about 1000$ to cancel)? Wear a surgical mask and fly? Drown yourself in cold meds and hope no one notices as you yarf up a lung?

God, this week just keeps getting better.

I'd go with wear a surgical mask and fly. Get better soon.

Heh. That's where I was leaning. My boss thought I'd attract too much attention with the mask... ;)

Ugh. No good options! :(

Whatever you decide, feel better soon. ♥

Heh. Really not. Feeling a little better now that I'm up and all. Will fly.

DRUGS. Piles and piles of drugs. People will notice anyway, and glare at you a lot, but if you've gotta travel, you've gotta travel.

Hope you feel better soon!
