About 11 am the flu took hold of my head. I had a complete melt-down sitting at my desk at the office. Lost all mental abilities. Crawled home to bed. Tried to watch a movie with Gus who had the afternoon off school, but the office kept calling and it took me a long long time to answer simple problems. Gus was patient, but jumped at the chance to go to Josh's when the invitation came.
