When I went to bed last night, I had a slight headache. I slept in way too late, yesterday morning, and had one of those "too much sleep" headaches that I can't shake all day. I thought I would feel better this morning. Nope. Woke up with my head hurting even worse. The pain was starting to go down my neck into my shoulders. I also felt slightly nauseated. Great. Monday is one of the days I really need to be at work. I debated whether to call in sick anyway. Amanda could cover for me a little bit, but that would mean I would have to drive her out there. Driving seemed out of the question. I also thought of going in without eating, or drinking anything and see if the nausea would go away. But then I thought of all the dogs barking with this headache. If I went in, I would be more of a raving, psychotic bitch than I usually am. The thought of eating anything made my stomach feel even worse. I thought I would try to drink some of my green tea and see if I could keep it down. The tea seemed to settle my stomach and I actually started to feel a little better. I still wanted to eat something though. Ah! Oatmeal! Made myself a bowl and managed to keep it down. I felt even better. Right now, the pain from the headache seems to have gone down some. My stomach is settled enough that I am going to take some Exedrin and see if that makes the pain go away completely. I feel much better now than when I woke up. I will go into work today.
