I've had much better weekends than the one just passed. And to cap it off, just made myself a yummy breakfast of Cheerios only to pour milk onto the cereal that was more likely to illicit excitement from Little Miss Muffet. I decided that maybe I should just go back to bed and forget about Monday altogether.

Don't get me wrong, some of the weekend has been fab. L and I got to spend lots of time together and we saw the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie on Saturday.

However since Sunday morning I've been suffering from mild food poisoning. I use the word mild to show that I'm not about to die of it or anything, rather than to explain away the symptoms as a mere trifle. Because they're not, I feel terrible. I've hardly had any sleep, I'm exhausted and my guts ache.

I thought I'd beaten it by lunchtime yesterday but it was back during the night with a vengeance. It's about 3am suffering from food poisoning when it's likely most people lose the will to live. I was so tired eventually I fell asleep but I'm really not on chipper form today.

Thankfully working from home helps a bit. I'm taking things easy and drinking plenty of liquids. And the continued online fun in ChromeHounds has kept my mind off things a bit. But I've got things to do and really don't feel up to doing them. I had to cancel an optician appointment this morning and I'm considering cancelling everything and getting some sleep.
