Day five of being sick
And I have made some progress towards recovery, though I should like to state, for the record? This is a nasty wee dose as far as the common cold goes.
(Symptoms: the usual cold symptoms, plus evil tonsil soreness, swelling, and a brief deficit in the ability to speak above a whisper. I can actually speak aloud today, but not for long, and it still hurts. Whichever of last week's New People What I Met gave this thing to me, I would like curse them roundly.)
Today I began to write the paper due Monday, and translated (as you may have seen) some Plato. But this, I fear, is the summit of my accomplishments. I have very little focus, and what little of it I did have has been expended in the above-mentioned pursuits.
My appetite is back, though. I have eaten all the things and I still feel hungry. Also, menstruation picked a really awkward time to arrive (late!)
