Yesterday, I woke up with a headache. Took some Aleve and went back to sleep. Woke up again at 8:30 (when I have to leave for work), decided my headache had taken a detour for Migraine City and called in sick for work.<\/p>\n

Five minutes later I texted Denise: “Home w\/ migraine. Tell me it’s OK to call in sick for that”<\/p>\n

“Absolutely!” she replied 90 seconds later. She is a good and loyal friend. Next, I took half of an Ambien.<\/p>\n

I hate calling in sick for work because inevitably I have to go back to work and I don’t wanna!<\/p>\n

I slept again until noonish, when I theoretically felt up to heating up leftover beef stew for lunch for the humans. By 2 PM, I was asleep again. I think I took a full Ambien this time. Around 4, Gene stuck his head in our bedroom and asked if I’d be up to going to dinner at 6 at Our Favorite Local Restaurant.<\/p>\n

“Sure!” I replied, even though I think I was hoping for sushi and my “Sure!” was kind of a “Yeahh, football!” in A Christmas Story type of “Sure”. Regardless, I woke up again at, oh, 5:45 to dress for dinner. I think I ate appetizers for dinner and ended up home with cake for dessert.<\/p>\n

(Moral of the story: Stay home).<\/p>\n

Oh, and at some point in the day I called in a refill for more Ambien. Yay.<\/p>\n

Today!!!! TOOOOOODAAAAAY I woke up with a sore back. Whiskey. Tango. Foxtrot.<\/p>\n

So now today’s been a heating pad, Aleve, walking around the Outlet Mall (we had to get tickets for the Best Picture Showcase* and also a new pillow for me **) kind of day. \u00a0Yes, I totally should have put off traipsing around the mall until…tomorrow. Or never. But I’m a woman, and a particularly stupid kind of woman who refuses to just say eff it and hole up with the laptop and Netflix episodes of Greys Anatomy.<\/p>\n

*yeaaah, gonna make Gene see The Artist!<\/h6>\n
**and NOW I wish I’d made Gene buy the pretty purse for me that I spied in the window @ Michael Kors or at least walked through the Coach outlet (one never knows what’s in there that is not specially made for the outlet and cheap). The chance of getting him to the mall by himself tomorrow is 2% and the chance of me getting back to the mall tomorrow is exactly -500%.<\/h6>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
