A note on getting sick

UPDATE, The next morning: Yep, I have a 100% genuine sore throat. I'd like to hope it's just a sore throat, I'll deal with it, recover and move on, but I know the reality is more likely to be:

- Virus moves into sinuses
- Virus moves into chest
- Virus hits hard for 3–4 days, then lingers for a week or two after

I am resigned to my fate. At least my watch gave me a rest day.

Late this afternoon, my nose and throat began feeling funny in that, “You may be coming down with something!” way, despite not going anywhere or near anyone that would presumably get me sick. Viruses are funny things. I’m hoping this is just a passing whatever, and I’ll be back to being A-OK and healthy tomorrow morning.

If not, I will update and probably post a GIF of a cat sneezing or something.

In fact, here’s one now:
