Called in sick when I wasn’t really sick and I feel bad. How do I stop feeling guilty?

Hey yall! The title sums it up. I usually work second shit (3-11) and specifically asked my boss for Saturday off to go to a show in a city a few hours away. He gave me Saturday off but scheduled me at 7 am today so I physically wouldn’t be able to be back in time to sleep before work. I ended up telling him I was throwing up and couldn’t go and he was extremely pissed and rude about it so now I feel guilty. Am I actually a piece of shit for doing this? I never call out and am generally a pretty reliable employee, but his reaction was pretty severe. How do I stop feeling bad?
