It's a Halloween thing
Okay, I have a weird town. It seems that our local city council has an obsession with NOT having trick-or-treating on Halloween - they haven't come on Halloween since I got here! So, yesterday was our trick-or-treat day. Tomorrow, of course, is Halloween (well, technically today... but whatever.)
So, came home for lunch and put up Halloween decorations, came home that night and did the handing out of treats. From about midday I'd had a headache, though, and it just kept getting worse. Wound up spending a little time last night worshiping the porcelain god, and since I wasn't feeling 100% in the morning, I called in sick.
Now, this does happen occasionally to me - I'll get a headache that just builds up and I wind up getting nauseous, so I'm not worried about it. And I'm usually better in the morning, but I didn't feel like taking the chance after a simple bowl of oatmeal had my stomach feeling a bit uncertain. Which meant I just spent the day snoozing and petting kitties... and grocery shopping and cleaning a bit, but mostly snoozing and petting kitties.
And also doing a little Halloween-inspired art. Well, Halloween-inspired and Smoke & Bandit-inspired. ;)
