called off
cmshaw this morning, so she didn't come get me (though her offer last night to drive the carpool this morning instead of me was about the best-timed act of kindness of which i've ever been the beneficiary). sent an e-mail to the boss-man, letting him know i wasn't coming in. (unfortunately he reported a lack of authorization to work from home -- which is stupid, since most of the work is done online, but whatever. i don't actually blame him; he's not currently authorized to allow overtime, either.) sent an e-mail to E, on whose team i was supposed to spare tonight (for either B -- who's out of town -- or D -- if he's still being a drama queen -- or both), advising him that i'm zigzagging between (1) feeling like i might be on the mend and (2) DEAD, so there wasn't going to be any curling tonight. went back to bed.
woke up an hour later.
woke up another hour after that, though i'd thought it was only about fifteen minutes.
woke up again another hour later. took day-quil.
almost an hour later, feeling no effect, i bundled myself into the car and went to urgent care. they pronounced my lungs clear (yay) and gave me antibiotics and decongestants that could dry out a rainforest. took the first one on the way home. will take the second (and the first antibiotic) in a few hours. was already feeling very slightly better three and a half hours ago when i curled up on the couch for a nap.
whoever's in charge of such things, i'd like to be able just once in my life to get a cold without it turning into a sinus infection, please. kthnxbye.
