13:03:35 .@BYUfan Shockingly so. in reply to BYUfan
13:41:36 Just saw bad traffic from fog means I wouldn't make it to my 8 am meeting on time. I'll call into it. Back to bed for a bit longer.
13:44:00 I've been under the weather and WFH the last couple days. Still only feeling ~80%. Was going to head in today though. Maybe still will.
13:45:40 As I sit here coughing, thinking maybe 66% more like it. Last couple days only managed 4-5 hours work before feeling wiped out. Sigh!
13:47:00 Anyway, not driving or bussing to 8 AM and calling in instead means I can rest for another hour or so. So ZZZzzz…
19:31:07 Ended up working from home for the morning. Called it quits around noon. Gunna lie down and just rest. Being sick sucks.
