For the first time in two years, I’m ill. Boo!
All the symptoms, violent sneezing, sore throat, swollen glands, blocked ears, aching face and no sleep. I forgot how miserable having a heavy cold can be.
I think the worst cold I had was in December 2012. I walked into my new job and immediately came down with a filthy London cold which lasted for two weeks. It wasn’t the best start.
Yesterday I soldiered on through a major presentation at the same company surreptitiously blowing my nose when I could before finally logging off at 7pm and collapsing in a pathetic blob.
After a rotten night with no sleep, I’m still feeling dreadful and may even have to take a covid test. After bragging for two years that I haven’t had it, perhaps my day has come!
