Not dead yet
A friend asked me this morning, via google-chat, whether I had died yet. No, I responded, at least I don’t think so.
I spent all day in bed yesterday, though, despite having a normal temperature. A normal temperature! For a full day! That, friends, is my test to determine whether I’m ready to resume normal life. So here I am, attempting to resume normalcy. And my internal clock is all mixed up. Oh well, at least I’m not shivering at 100ºF. The worst of my symptoms have passed, and I expect that – so long as I stay hydrated – I will continue to recover well.
Regardless of which set of infections I turn out to have had, I should no longer be contagious through social contact, nor through food-prep, and so I’ll be putting something yummy together for my friends tonight. Also, I have a lot of phone calls to make if I’m going to catch up with my planned timeline.
