Shuffling toward normalcy

I enjoyed my day in bed yesterday. Is that weird to say? Considering I had a pretty bad headache, was lightheaded and nauseated and tired, and even threw up. (Not in the bed, thank goodness.) I think I say it because it was the first time in over two years that I felt bad enough to lie in bed without guilt and didn't have to worry about taking care of anyone else (or worry about anyone else taking care of me). I dozed, read, dozed some more, ate, watched tv on my laptop, dozed yet some more. A perfect sick day.

I'm back at work. I've still got the headache. Despite the Vicodin. Which tells me it could be a whole lot worse without the controlled substances. But I'm back at work. And reasonably functional. I even was bold enough to unwrap my head. I figured that if I did it now, and started to swell, I could go across the street to get re-wrapped. So far, so good.

I am glad you are feeling better. I'd like an excuse to stay in bed all day, but I'd prefer a reason where I don't have a headache. Hope you feel better and better.

I'd love a sick day (although not for the reasons you had one, poor dear). Hoping you're feeling better tonight.

I hope you don't get addicted to the Vicodin like Dr. House is.
