Ugh

[unicornduke]

I've been tired all week, I thought it was due to lingering tiredness from the wedding. But this morning I woke up, got up, sat and stared at my computer for ten minutes, then went back to bed for another hour and a half. Then I tried eating a little granola and promptly threw it up. My mom and dad both said they had stomach issues in the last few days but they thought it was something they ate. But now I think there's a little stomach bug going around.

I feel way better now even if I'm still really tired. Good news is that it's a rainy gross day, so I'm doing some computer work and can take a nap later.

Boo, stomach bug!

(Gastro covid is a thing; gastroenteritis keeps showing up on the Ontario outbreak tracker, too. Who knows.)

Either way, lots of clear fluids.

I'm considering that it could have been the combination of things that I've eaten. I drank some water that had been sitting around in my room for several days (oops) late last night to take my vitamins. Other issues might have been some frozen potstickers or maybe the meat leftover from the party. Or maybe the ice cream that got left in my truck for a bit.

Given I felt much better as soon as I threw up makes me think it was the old water. I have consumed an entire bowl of thick soup and feel no nausea, just sleepy.

Yay for successful refueling!

That does sound like standing water, and may it prove no worse.

Nap! And I hope you feel better quickly.

Didn't nap, but threw up and felt better very quickly.

An alert went out about cucumbers the other day. So if you've eaten grocery store cucumbers, that may be what's up.

No, turns out it might have been the water I drank that had been sitting around for an unknown amount of time.
