I'm gonna call in sick tomorrow, I'm sure my boss will understand as he'll be playing the game too (at the same computer as me )
I'm not sure about others, but where I work, I get 3 weeks of sick leave a year (Gotta love working for the state). And it does roll over for me. I have somewhere between 6-7 weeks of sick leave saved up.

Back to topic, if the DL time is 9-10 EST, well, I get off at 8, so, thats perfect for me. BUT, if it's 1 AM, well, my work might be seeing a conversation not too unlike this:

Me: "Hey boss, I think I am having vision problems."
Boss: "Really? I am sorry to hear that. What's wrong exactly?"
Me: "I just can't see myself coming in."

Good times ahead
