Ugh. I had such a lovely weekend and wake up at 4am this morning feeling like the living dead. I got almost no work done today. My boss is a pretty understanding person and so I don't think she really cared (in fact she sent me several tasks by email with the disclaimer, "If you feel up to it." Still, she will care if I miss my deadlines later this week. So I am truly hoping to feel better tomorrow so I can whip through a ton of stuff.
What gets me is that everyone I talk to assumes it's a stomach virus rather than food poisoning. And for that reason, it's not that bad. I read somewhere that around 90% of adult tummy troubles are actually food poisoning mistaken for a viral affliction. Kids, on the other hand, due to their lack of handwashing and their need to touch stuff, only have food poisoning 60-70% of the time - the rest is viral.
If I were feeling better, I would probably never post an entry like this.
sick,
work
