I woke up this morning about 2:30 AM unable to stop coughing. I felt hot, and took my temperature – 100.8. I called in to work and have been in bed all day. Sorry for no lunchtime blog post and for not answering emails. I haven’t been in front of the computer since 8 this morning. My fever has since risen to the 102 range. This is either a bad cold, or a medium case of the flu, not sure which.
This was a terrible time to call in to work, because my backup on the company website is in India getting married. So the company has no webmaster. If the way I feel right now is the way I wake up feeling tomorrow morning, I’ll have no choice to but call in sick again.
It goes without saying that I won’t be at Pint Nite at the Saucer or poker at the Goose tonight. Even if I get to feeling better and go to work, I’m skipping poker tomorrow at Blind Bear. Out of respect for my opponents, I don’t want to be passing around cards with them in case I have anything contagious.
Going back to bed. I may try to do a Monday news post this evening, but don’t count on it.
