I stayed home sick today. I was working on a big deal of an issue on Friday, but I was in just too rough shape to go in today. I had to pass it off to someone else. I feel awful about that, but the guy I asked to take over is actually a better coder than I am so if something comes up today (I don’t think it will, I think we covered all the bases on Friday) the customer will be in good hands. I still feel like crap about it though.
Feeling sick today is karma. I was the one who canceled band practice last night. A stomach bug is the universe’s way of calling me a dick. Sorry guys. I’ll make it up to you.
I actually feel a little better now than I did at 6:30 am when I went back to bed. I can’t tell if that’s because I am better, or because I just haven’t eaten anything yet. I am a big fat guy who is literally afraid to eat. That’s how bad I felt when I woke up at 3:30 am or so. Yikes.
One of my neighbors has been running a weed wacker for a solid 30 minutes. I’m thinking he might actually be mowing his lawn with it. The things you see when you stay home sick, am I right?

Hope you’re feeling better! You should see what’s going on here: We have our cable company digging up just about every lawn in the neighborhood. It’s about time — we’ve been paying for 200 GB internet service and most days we’re lucky to get 40 — but still, it’s kind of lousy that we just spent nearly $300 trying to get our “lawn” to grow, and now it’s being dug up. You just can’t win!
