Today has generally been a bad idea so far. I feel like death, my colleague said my face was completely pale this morning as I was hunched over battling stomach cramps. The cramps have subsided but I just haven't been feeling right at all since. Brain barely functioning, body exhausted, I'm at 5% productivity and just want to go home and sleep. ugh

Seriously tempted to chuck a sickie tomorrow to make up for today.........

It's a shit of a day. I may actually die from this migraine.

The sudden temp changes and all-day rain don't seem to be helping... adds to the feeling of wanting to hibernate in convalescence. Migraine sounds like torture. Can you get home early?

I've somehow dragged myself through the day but if this keeps up tomorrow I really don't think I can handle a full day of fieldwork. See how I go after an early night. 😴

I would absolutely take the day off tomorrow. You need rest :)

I'll see how I feel. The field work we have on is actually really enjoyable ATM and some time in nature with fresh air and a bit of walking could be really good for me. But I have a backup med cert in case I wake up wanting to crawl into a hole
