Unwell

The plan that came to my mind yesterday about faking sickness and not coming to work today almost became a reality. I awoke at 9 with an ache in my ribs and hips. I had been feeling sort of shivery and feverish while sleeping last night. I thought of skipping work, but decided against it as I wasn't feeling so bad that I couldn't get out of bed. But now, at the time of this writing, I have a slight headache developing. So I think I might as well head home.
