I’d not been feeling like myself for the last few days, and yesterday I came down with laryngitis and a head cold. I stayed home from work this morning because I also woke up with a fever. Ewww. This illness feels a little weird, though, because I’m sneezing all of the time. I don’t have a lot of congestion, or drips even, just constant, itchy sneezing. Sneezing and coughing so much is making my throat feel worse, too. I’ve opted to wrap a scarf around my face until the CDC removes my “germ bomb” classification. I’m also drinking lots of fluids and taking ibuprofen to help my throat. It feels really dry and puffy on the inside.
Having the day at home has helped me catch up on a few things I usually leave until the weekend, like returning phone calls (albeit, via email) and going through some of my required reading. I have yet to finish my ISO manuals from work and I’ve got Board stuff going on this week, too.
Cool thing happening: lunar eclipse tonight! I’m going to try my best to get out and see it with my night binoculars. It’s supposed to peak around 20:00 mountain time.
