Is this weird? Am I antisocial?

I've been sick for two days now...food poisoning. Yesterday ALL morning and most of the afternoon my stomach felt like doodly doo. Today I think I am normal-ing out...but still having twinges.

Today being the 4th of July, there is a big barbecue. I just can NOT bring myself to go.

Instead, I slept late, have not even taken a shower, and I am definitely going to miss the big party. AND I feel guilty about that.

It's not weird at all and you are definitely not antisocial. Take it from someone who has had food poisoning a few times. You are sick as a dog. The first 24 hours I can't eat and can barely even keep a sip of water down. You want to go to the party, but you still feel a little sick and even the smell of food right now can send you back to the bathroom. No! You are definitely not antisocial. I would want to go too, but rest your stomach. Don't get sick again and especially in front of your neighbors.

@Musicman Yeah, you are right. I'm not even over that cough I had last week...and if you cough, or act sick and your neighbors are around...they give you the fish eye...👀👀👀
