Not my winter

[mizarchivist]

So, I started to feel sort of cruddy yesterday, but I was hoping it was just over-extending at the gym (rowing!) and dehydration. Nope. I have a cold. But that's okay. I didn't have any plans that have been in place for about 3 months for the weekend. Nope, not me... wait. No, the other thing. Sigh. But no fever, just a whole lot of congestion. Oh, and not a whole lot of energy to speak of, and also damn sore shoulders from yesterday's workout. Skipping my trip down to Providence is not an option considering; I'm actually responsible for some stuff.

This makes the third time I've gotten sick in less than two months. What the hell? At least I have today, Monday and Tuesday off.

Also, quiet_elegance  just came home with NyQuil and antibiotics with that chest infection he gets every 4-6 months or so, thanks to working in nasty, dusty places. Poor dude.

This has been one major opportunistic persistent bug. (And the chest congestion after the fever breaks is a common symptom.)

Sending warm healing thoughts to the both of you.

Well, the first bug of the season was the barfy kind. Then I had the OMG when will this fever go away kind. With those, which really knocked me flat, I'm feeling relatively spared. But it still sucks and I thank you kindly for your sympathy and good thoughts.

And really, getting a cold less than a week after traveling by air and seeing a whole lot of people, including little vectors, I mean kids--- so not a surprise.

My sympathies and hopes for an immediate recovery.

[mizarchivist]

Thanks. Hope you're feeling better, too

Well enough, some lingering effects but nothing major.

I think it's just that time in the viral invader cycle - I woke up with a sniffly head, too. (Just in time for my completely unscheduled 3-day weekend!!!) I'm thinking there was something afoot at Diesel.

Better living through chemistry, and I hope that you manage some energy-appropriate fun at your weekend event. I'll light a candle in NyQuil bottle for both of us.

As I said to feste- I *did* just take a plane trip and was in contact with a whole lot of people while in Ohio. But yes. I share your wtf.
Quick healing to you, darlin'

Poor you! L has had some kind of narsty cough for the last day or two. We thought he was going to be really sick, but so far just the cough.

Anyway, I'm home with him again today (for unrelated reasons) and if you need an errand run let me know.

Sympathies to both of you!

I'm headed to Providence with bryttan shortly- helping LBD set up. Thanks for the offer, though

[beowabbit]

Oh, no! I sure hope you both get better soon!

[mizarchivist]

thanks

Right there with you... dealing with the 3rd incarnation of some kind of cold that just started up again this morning...

Not been a good winter this year...

Hope you feel better quickly.

[mizarchivist]

I'm relieved as hell that the drug cocktail I put together is making a difference. Good luck to you, too. Can we have spring now, please?!

Bleah, I almost always get sick when I travel by plane. :{
*hugs* and I hope you feel well again soon.

Dinner Break!

Oh honey, feel better soon. I'm sending you yummy hot virtual chicken soup and you *know* that is some serious stuff.
