Home Sick

I felt slightly "off" last week. Yesterday, My cold stepped up its intensity. Today, I am leveled by it. I had been marveling that though I was not at 100% for the last few days, that I didn't seem to be suffering from that thin film of malaise that clouds the vision when one is ill. I had the symptoms: a cough, some congestion, mildly scratchy throat, but I felt fine.

Now it's as though the world has a yellow-tinted plastic cover on top of it.

I can see that what I'll be up to all day is lying on my love seat, reading, sleeping, and watching bad tv intermittently. I'm so not going to class tonight. I'll be impressed if I manage to drag myself into work tomorrow.
