So, I did end up staying home. The nausea passed but I woke up with a nasty tension headache and didn't drag myself out of bed to take something for it in time. I had the idea that I might just sleep it off and go in a little late but then I slept past the point that it felt worth the trouble. Plus, I still felt kinda drained, even though I could look at a screen without wanting to stab myself in the eyes.

In better news, my nephew turned five today! My sister brought the kids over once I felt a little better so that they wouldn't just be stuck at home all day. I had to retreat more often than usual to recharge my social battery but all the kids were pretty chill and that helped. I put together a small bundle of gifts for him, just things I had around, just so he'd have something to open today (his party is Saturday). I had a cool lock box style pencil case with 3D sharks and I filled it with a little notepad, a set of different-colored mini-pens I've been meaning to give him for a minute anyway, a Transformers toy that's been haunting my go-pile and a trade slip to use at the local used book store. He was really excited by all of it, which was cute. I felt well enough to go along to his birthday dinner, too, and that was fun.

Gonna be back at work tomorrow. As annoying as a mid-week interlude is, I must admit that it does help the week seem to go by faster. Fingers crossed there was nothing wild going on while I was gone. No texts about the lab burning down, so that's a good sign, at least, lol.
