Went down with a mysterious cough on Tuesday night. Seemed like just a bad cold Wednesday, got worse and added dizziness to the mix Thursday, now today the dizziness is gone (hooray) but whatever I've got has changed tack and is trying out severe nausea on me instead (booo).

Was supposed to be out tomorrow with a friend I've not seen since August. Not impressed.

So while I spend the next few days swooning around the house complaining about it like an actual child, I'd love to hear some happy things to focus on instead!

Weekend plans, amusing anecdotes, promises to avenge me should I not make it through, jokes at my expense, all equally welcome. For the love of god just distract me 😭

... Seriously, mate, get tested for covid. And if it is covid, do your best to get some paxlovid. Despite what many people seem to think, it's still naught to mess around with.

Yeah I'll keep testing just in case, I know it doesn't always show up straight away. Never actually caught Covid (to my knowledge, of course) due to being careful and also an antisocial hermit, so would be sad to see the end of such an excellent streak, but such is life.
