Stomach bug. How nice.

So from relationship dramas enough to give Bold and the Beautiful a run for its money, to getting a stomach bug that renders me helpless and rolling on the floor in pain. I now regret that I wished to have a more interesting life, cos I think I'm having a pretty interesting one at the moment.
It all came on so suddenly. At 1:30am yesterday I woke up with stomach pain and I thought to myself, ok I'll just pop a bit of antacid and see how that goes. Two hours later, I'm still on the floor rubbing my stomach hoping the pain would go away and take more antacid. It killed me more just taking the antacid so I woke my parents up hoping that they would be so loving as to take me to hospital. But no....they just looked at me rolling on the floor of their bedroom and go, "You should really go see a specialist about that stomach of yours". Instead they gave me some paracetamol and send me back to bed. I woke up at 6am and decided to call the 24hour nursing service for advice, and they tell me I have a stomach bug, and that all I can eat for the next 24 hours is noodles, pasta, rice, white bread and chicken without the skin on it. Veges was a no no. Weird eh?
I thought maybe I could still go to work that day (yes I'm an idiot) but by 7:40am I knew better and decided to get my boss to work for me instead. So I still had to open up shop but she came in at 10am to relieve me.
On the way home, my lovely fiance decided to call and see how I was, but unfortunately it ended up as a fight as usual with me crying in the car, cos he wants to get married quickly and I told him no. Sigh!
I'm glad I slept for the rest of the day. Too hard to deal with this world sometimes.
