Stomach Bug

Yesterday, I was sick.

I got up and got ready for work, all the while pretending that I didn't feel like a great big pile of shit.  But then, my body informed me, very loudly, that no, we wouldn't be going to work.  

Before I went back upstairs on to bed, I laid on the couch for a while.  My Anyanka came right over and crawled up onto my chest, wanting pets.  I indulged her for a few and then my eyes drifted shut.  She curled up on me and snuggled in.  It's amazing how much heat a six pound cat can generate.  (My Anyanka is very wee)  That alone made me feel a bit better.

Eventually, I crawled upstairs and slept most of the day.  Around five I woke up and managed to keep down some toast.  Then I slept some more.

That's the only problem with staying home sick from work.  You can't enjoy it because you're sick!
