That kind of sucked.

torquillI spent 20 hours in bed today, which was not at all my intention... turns out I picked up a GI virus somewhere, and it struck last night. I was unconscious most of today, woozy from fever and knocked out by Tramadol, which is the only thing that even touches the inflammatory pain I get from the flu. Whee.
I'm feeling a bit better now, though I think my temperature is still a little high, and my head feels like every description of a hangover I've ever seen. I'm trying to drink as much as I can, because my near-coma today made it difficult to replace the fluids I was losing and I woke up with my kidneys screaming at me. They seem a little happier now. My blood pressure is a bit higher too, so I no longer feel like I'm going to pass out if I stand up for five minutes.
I expect to feel a bit better tomorrow, but it's a good thing that I didn't have any plans this weekend, as I expect I'll be rather worn out for the next couple of days. As it is, I'm not sure I can meet my own deadline at work anymore, since I missed today. Sigh.
I get a weekend off, and Murphy strikes again. FML.
