occupation: code monkey
Strange.
My job is finally fitting me.
Wednesday, I was fighting a fever all day, but refused to leave work because I was hours away from finishing some code I was working on.
Thursday, I really felt like crap in the morning and was SO TORN between staying home and sleeping or going into work to finish said code. Finally, at the last moment, I decided to stay home and even took some Nyquil to make sure I wouldn't keep myself awake thinking about work instead.
This is really a new thing for me. Or, at least, I don't remember the last time I would rather go to work than stay home with a valid sick day.
And, also, a coworker of mine I was talking to on the phone on Friday brought up some interesting tidbits. He's based in Arkansas as our support person for a big customer, so he's never been to St. Cloud for a work function where our spouses are also there. Turns out he graduated high school with my husband. They both had big 80s hair. I couldn't stop giggling.
