I had every intention of going to work today. I even set my alarm, got up, showered and put on work clothes. But then the shivers started. I attributed it to the fact that my house is generally cold during the day time b/c there are normally no people here.
But then I tried to eat some toast, and all I could manage was two bites before I gave up. My appetite is gone. Which in conjunction with the shivers and suddenly inability to breathe after hacking up part of my lung, I went to take my temperature.
According to the digital thermometer, I'm 101.1 degrees. :(
I figured that was high enough to warrant me staying home another day.
Fuck. I wanted to used my sick days for when I WASN'T sick. Like in December when there's a blizzard and I can't drive to work.
I sorta feel bad because it's a busy week at work right now. But I also sorta feel bad because I have 101.1 degree fever. So...fuckit, I'm going back to bed.
