I've had a weird cold where my nose has been almost perfectly dry and yet my upper throat has felt dry and has accumulated green sludge at an alarming rate.
The next phase is that the sludge dislodges, heads down to the alveoli and then the nagging cough. Bought Mucospect and now although my head feels a bit heavy and scratchy, I'm starting to feel brighter and better.
Today I managed to escape from the my sunny prison and have been riding around in the Jeep. Pumped my wheel and new fitness ball (a red one) at Cyclopede, paid R3000 into my American Express card (officially meeting all my obligations) and ran into Karen Allers, her husband, her mom, and Vincent's daughter. Mrs Aller's says my brother is a machine - just muscles at the gym. In contrast i probably look like the Michellin man. Our showdown in a race on Saturday never happened because we both got sick soon after that tough spin class. Barendine did too, much worse than either of us.
Had lunch with my dad and brother and then Allie joined us.
Have not done much marking, but some. Am itching to buy a cvar but trying not to. Missed a 21st birthday party as a result (Christie, Lee and PJ were at Elzanne's) so a bit blue about that.
Have a few pots on the stove in terms of ideas so am ready to change from 1st gear (sickness) to second gear (starting to get going, picking up speed).
This three week holiday already feels like it is speeding away from me like a runaway train. Playing the new Battle For Middle Earth computer game isn't helping any, but made the process of being sick a lot more fun.
