The past few days, I have been home, sick in bed from work. Generally, this tends to make me cranky and lethargic because I always have to be doing something. I've camped out on one end of the couch with Kitten on the other end (we have a rather large sectional) when she's home and sleeping. I've spent a large chunk of time just sleeping since Tuesday.

Speaking of which, Tuesday, I went to work intending to go the full shift. Once there, I was miserable and cranky and decided to leave after an hour. On my way home, I stopped at Physician's Immediate Care in Plainfield and saw a doctor. I was diagnosed with a viral upper respiratory infection and also provided a prescription for cough medicine with hydrocodone and a doctor's note for work. I was also very firmly, but gently advised to stay home for a couple days to rest. Leaving on Tuesday does mean I lost my holiday pay for Monday, but I would rather not have gone to the hospital instead.

Today, I may try to do laundry and get that done. I may also see about setting up my desktop, but Kitten asked me to avoid heavy lifting, so we'll see.
