Okay, WOW

So, yesterday was more or less a complete wash-out. I woke up, took my meds, showered, got ready for work, and got as far as putting things in the car when I was hit by a bout of sudden, intense nausea. Like, "thank the gods I hadn't eaten anything" nausea. So I notified work, waited until the nausea went down, and went back to bed. 

...And then promptly woke back up around noon with an extensive, extended case of diarrhea. I signed on from home for a bit and fixed a couple of things at work, then signed off again and basically just sat there playing a video game and drinking fizzy waters. I finally risked eating some macaroni and cheese a little after six -- I was starting to feel kind of shaky -- and had to cancel the evening's D&D game. Which was a pity, because I actually had some events prepared for it.

No idea what set that off. I'm on some new meds, so maybe taking them all at once caused a problem? I'm going back to my earlier 2-stage setup, where I take the really critical ones when I first get up and hope to the gods I remember to take the rest later in the day after I've eaten. Might also have been something I ate -- again, no idea what -- or just some kind of little tummy bug. 

I'm going into work this morning (unless it happens again, in which case I'm calling the damned doctor instead) but I don't know if I'll be there for the full day. Whatever that was, it really knocked me for a loop.

All of which is to say that there won't be any fiction today, and the rest of the week is on thin ice too.
