Post 2157
- 7 years and 267 days since I started this blog -
I've been battling a cold all weekend. It started as a minor, feels-like-I'm-coming-down-with-something sore throat on Friday, and became a real coughing, sneezing, runny-nose illness Saturday. By the time I was tearing down and loading out Sunday, I had fever chills.
I thankfully enjoy good health most of the time. I typically have only two or three sick days a year (so I'm sick less than 1% of the time).
Given my propensity for recreational drugs, and my daily forty-pill vitamin regime, it might surprise you to learn that I am reluctant to take any other drugs or medication.
However, at Rooters on Sunday, playing bass all night while sneezing and coughing my way towards laryngitis, I did break down and take some Robitussin. It did help a little.
I also had no appetite Sunday - the only thing I ate all day was a Quest bar. But I did have plenty of liquid.
Today was a rest-up day - I never went out, never got dressed.
By the evening, I was feeling better. I did finish the bottle of Robitussin, but at that point I hadn't coughed for over an hour.
I need to fully recover quickly, because I'm flying to Los Angeles Wednesday morning, and any congestion I bring on a plane will be amplified by flying.
I haven't begun to pack for my trip. That will have to get done tomorrow.
I have pretty good healing powers, and I'm grateful for the level of health I have that lets me say that. We'll talk tomorrow.
