I left work early yesterday and have been home sick today. I had a fever, and am just ridiculously incapable of being functional with a fever. I always say, having a cold, sore throat, whatever -- no problem. As soon as I get a fever, though, it's over.
I was on the fence this morning about whether I should really take the sick day. Something about me hates to do so. Not sure what that's about. In the end, though, I felt rotten enough that it seemed merited. I took Teo to day care, came home, watched some "Project Runway" and then fell asleep. When I woke up, it was five pm.
I spent the ENTIRE day in bed. Asleep.
Amazing.
I think my body just completely shut down, so I am glad I listened to it when I needed to. I still feel pretty crappy, but we'll see if I feel any better after another good sleep. It's 9.30 now, and I think I will probably be back in bed within another half hour.
