Grey and rainy outside

I spent two thirds of the weekend in bed and when I woke up today I still had a fairly bad headache, felt dizzy when I moved too quickly, and my ears and throat hurt too, so I decided not to go to work today instead of sitting at my desk all day doing nothing and feeling miserable. And yet I guiltily asked myself if I wasn't just using this as an excuse to stay home, after all many of my coworkers came to the office when they were feeling worse.
...I think I underestimated how much I've been brainwashed by the capitalist system, shit.

I also hoped that I could at least use the opportunity to take another walk when it's nice out, but sadly it's raining today, which will ruin the last remains of the snowmen built when we had beautiful snow a few days ago.

I finished the rough first draft of my Yuletide fic, which I'm very excited about. I thought that it would probably work best not to touch it for two or three days before starting to edit it, but I'm also impatient and want to finish it immediately... I did try starting a treat instead but it got out of hand immediately and instead of fun adventures I was suddenly writing angsty family drama, idk how that happened. Not sure I can salvage it but maybe I'll try.
