Meh

I have my first cold of the winter. It sent me to bed early on Thursday, kept me in bed most of Friday and much of this morning, and will probably send me to bed early tonight also.

I have strepsils by the multitude, lemsip and honey, Lapsang tea that tastes like burning pine-forests, and a transparent desire for sympathy since I've been sitting in the house for nearly 48 hours and not wanting to see my friends for fear of afflicting them with lurgy.

That sounds more than a cold to me. Colds are just viruses you carry around with you and distribute while carrying out your normal activities.

I have lots of sympathy, having just gotten over my Fall Virus Extravaganza. So: there, there, dear. Have a nice nap and you'll feel better when you wake up.

Bummer innit? You stay at home from Social Conscience, and as a result people ignore you, thinking you're being antisocial. Pats on head, biccits, etc.

It's pants. Hope it clears up soon!

Oh poor old thing.

I also have a cold, and a repulsively sore throat, but I have been going around my usual affairs as AM is here and I've already seen everyone I might infect every day anyway.
