SUMMER COLD

I woke up this morning with a sore throat. It wasn’t too bad but I definitely knew something was amiss as soon as I woke up. I drank some water and ate some breakfast. The soreness subsided and I felt almost normal again. I detected a bit of fatigue, a slight dip in energy that signaled I wasn’t exactly healthy.

The rest of the day proceeded normally for me but during the early evening, I felt the slightest of sinus congestion. I probably have a cold. So far it’s pretty mild but we’ll see what tomorrow brings. It’s never great to get sick no matter what time of the year it is but it seems like an extra kick in the groin to get sick during the summer when the weather is nice. In the winter time, when the it’s cold and rainy, you were going to be inside anyways, sick or healthy. In the summer time, it’s great being outside to enjoy the weather. It sucks when you’re ill and have to stuck in bed.

I suppose I should feel lucky that it’s been about four or five months since I was last ill. I average about one cold during the summer so perhaps this was not unexpected. At least it’s not a sinus infection. I shudder to think about how terrible my entire month of January was.

Well, I’m going to get some rest now.
