Sick Day

I am sick. Not rush to the hospital looking for a cure sick, more like rush to the bathroom and hope I make it there in time sick. I actually got sick at work yesterday. Well, I didn't actually get sick, I just felt like I was in imminent danger of hurling all over my computer terminal. Luckily I didn't. I told myself I would wait until my last break and then go to the bathroom and see if that made me feel better, but about a half hour before my break I started really feeling bad so I went ahead and logged of and went to the bathroom. Unfortunately, that didn't make me feel any better, so I just went to the front desk and told them I wasn't feeling well and was going to go home. They are pretty cool about that, as long as you don't make a habit of it.

Luckily I made it home before I actually got sick. On the way home I thought I was going to get sick a couple times but managed to avoid it, which is a good thing. I thought about driving home with the window down, just in case I needed to stick my head out and upchuck, but it was raining so that didn't sound like a very good idea. I keep one of those little plastic grocery bags in the car to put trash in, so I just set that on the seat next to me and hoped it wouldn't leak if I had to use it. But I didn't have to, so it's all good.

I don't want to gross anybody out with details of my illness, so all I'm going to say is everything I eat is coming out in pureed liquid form in both directions. Sometimes at the same time, which is an experience I would encourage you to avoid if at all possible.
