Stomach
My guts were all gurgley yesterday. Nothing major, didn't think anything of it. Then I went to bed and had dreams so messed up I'm not even going to try to synopsize them. I kept waking up with pretty bad back pains, but in the middle of my back, which isn't where I normally get them. When I finally got up once and for all, my stomach hurt real bad, a real sharp ache. Have you ever had a stomach ache so bad you felt it in your back? That's what was going on. I thought maybe I was just really hungry, but food did nothing.
So I called in sick. Maybe I'm being a wuss, but I don't feel like toughing this out in the workplace. I've eaten enough antacid and drank enough Pepto, to minimal effect, to think the situation is serious enough. I don't think it's flu, it's too one-dimensional for that. Maybe it's just several days of crappy eating habits making my body pissed off at my brain.
Just got my first paycheck, from the one day I worked two weeks ago. I'm making more than I thought I was. Crap. I really should've toughed this stomach thing out. But sleeping in to 10:00 was hardly a bad experience.
