I woke up today feeling okay. My ears still hurt a little, and I'm a little tired and stuffy, and my throat's still sore, but everything today felt better than it did yesterday.
And then I looked at my phone, which I use as an alarm, and realized it had died on me sometime in the night. I had forgotten to charge it. I feel like such a moron.
When I finally figured out the time, I had less then ten minutes to get to work, and there was no way, still in my pajamas, that I was going to make it on time.
I emailed Alexander and said that I wasn't coming in because I was sick, but that I was hopeful about tomorrow.
I'm feeling a little guilty about this, even though I really shouldn't, because I haven't missed a day of work or school in about seven or eight years, and usually go even when I am sick. But I still do, because, if I had gotten up in time, I would have probably been okay today. That said, I'm going to try to get some extra rest today so I am 100 percent tomorrow.
