First I woke up from a whole dream where I couldn't sleep all night. Yes, I was having dreams about having insomnia. That was awesome. Then I let the dog out at four in the morning. Then I gave up and got up around 5:30 because my head hurt and I figured it was one of those "get up and you'll feel better" headaches.
Then I choked on my morning meds and spent the next, uh, ten minutes retching. The pills I did manage to swallow stayed down, somehow, but that really really sucked.
Also in the dream of insomnia I got a migraine from lack of sleep. I guess that was my brain saying "hey, body, your head hurts" or something. Or vice versa. My head still hurts this morning.
But on the other hand, I have a 7am meeting I forgot about so at least I'm awake for that, which is good because I think I have to run it.
On the upside, I made it to my 7:30pm meeting last night and ended up having to run that, so at least I was able to contribute given I've missed the last couple weeks.
Yesterday also did not start well, but it got better. I sort of had the day off; I traded shifts with a co-worker to be in this afternoon rather than yesterday afternoon. I ended up working from home through the day, but I didn't have to go in which was nice because after Monday and Tuesday I was feeling frazzled. But I had a good day with Buddy: first we went for a long-ish walk, then a little while later we went to Mud Bay, and after we left Mud Bay we went to Mill Creek Town Center where we peeked into Paddywack and then walked around. We would have stayed longer at MCTC but Buddy was so interested/excited in everything he kept pulling on the leash and my hand hurt from pulling back. On the other hand, he was panting by the time we got in the car to come home so I did my best to wear him out.
And I got a couple work things done that were due on Monday, so I'm ahead of the game which always helps. I have to get another thing down on paper, but that shouldn't be too terribly difficult.
note: since I started this post I had my 7am meeting, which was actually really productive and I feel good about, and I've knocked one more thing off my to-do list.
This morning Buddy made both me and Morgan laugh in an "oh, our dog" kind of way. I let him out at four in the morning to do his business--I'm assuming, I didn't go look. Morgan got up about 5:15 as he normally does to take the dog out, and Buddy was like "eff off, I'm warm here". Eventually he did go downstairs and go out where he immediately wanted to come back in. Morgan got him to pee, at least, but when he tried to feed Buddy the dog was like "nope" and immediately went back upstairs to get under the covers and snuggle. I'm pretty sure he's still there and asleep, since I've seen no sign of him. Eventually he'll wake up and I'll take him out and then head into work.
But first, more tea.
