Whine Whine Whine
Nov. 10th, 2005 11:15 amYup, it's a whiny entry. My head hurts and I don't want to be at work.
Starting mid-evening last night the headache began. I could feel it slooooowly building, which is always fun. Having checked the weather, okay so I get the forecast e-mailed to me so 'checking' is pretty simple, I knew we were expected a 20 degree drop between yesterday and today and then a 20 degree rise for tomorrow. Knowing that pretty much clued me in as to why I was in pain. Mostly.
It didn't get to be too bad until I went to bed. That whole sleep thing eluded me, and apparently the Hubby was having a bad night as well. We kept waking each other up (or thinking we had)- and then apologizing. He started it though. I did snap at him at one point- see, he apologized for waking me up, but I thought I was already awake and told him that. He was not sleeping due to feeling somewhat ill and loads of stress. He's meeting people at his school today to talk about financing- and he's worried since he had to withdraw from the class he was taking this semester, thinking it'll mess up scholarship chances.
I was having this weird dream, that I didn't know was a dream, that I was bidding on some sort of computer board (I don't even remember what it supposedly did) on eBay and the auction was almost done. During the dream I was waking up and going back to sleep- that lovely, obnoxious state wherein you can't actually tell that you've slept? Yeah...
The headache just was NOT letting me sleep. I wanted meds at one point, but had the hubby curled up behind me and a sleeping Sasha weighing down the covers and my right arm on the other side. There was no moving without disturbing both of them. So I waited an hour, or well, maybe a minute- hard to tell at 1 am, and wriggled in an attempt to get up. Woke them both up and whined about my head, so hubby got me meds and Sasha moved to the foot of the bed to sulk.
That should have been good, but the meds didn't kick in and we both spent the night on and off awake. I hate, hate, hate nights like that. I still have my headache and now I want a nap. A long nap. Were this a normal place with a normal schedule- I would have called in- I do not feel up to being. But, the Mrs. Boss is here/not here at random right now due to surgery her 17 year old son needed. (long story about what's going on but the short version is that the lad needed to have a leg shortened.) So she's often not here because he's not able to do much of anything without assistance. I can't call in with a good conscience knowing there's no one here who can cover me, and that adds more stress to Mrs. Boss- and she's got a full plate. So while I don't feel up to being, I can actually manage it. For now. Napping will commence as soon as I get home from work this evening.
