Grumble.

I've felt like crap for the past couple of days, and it has culminated in what is obviously some sort of stomach virus. So I figured I'd call in sick tomorrow and let the healing magic of the bears/penguins/mice/elephants and other creatures that live in our bed take care of me.

except...

Like the idiot I am I forgot to put my truck key back in the box today. Realized that while walking home from the light rail station. I might be able to miss a day, but they sort of need the key so someone can drive my route. Since I'm of the opinion that if I can get out of bed and get dressed without falling over, I can work, I guess I'm going in.

[livejournal.com profile] kshandra offered to take the key in, but it would need to be there early so whoever covered for me would have it. So, unless I'm really out of in the morning, I'll try to get through the day.

A Stomach Virus....

I had one of these once when I had just left the service... and it resulted in my mother calling the police on me... (l-o-n-g story).

So, since you ended up home sick, how did you get the key in to work?

When I caled in, I told my boss that Kirsten would be bringing it in. He told me not to bother. I think we have a spare for my truck tucked away somewhere.
