Radio silence… due to death.
I’ve had the flu for 4 days running now. I had a high fever of 103 on Sunday night, low temperatures all day yesterday, and now my fever is rising again. (I am going to see my doctor this afternoon, no worries.)
The worst part is this dry cough, so irritating that I have practically no voice left.
Anyway, it’s funny what the delirium of sickness does to you. Yesterday I spent part of the afternoon weaving in and out of a haze, clicking links on YouTube. (I’d been looking for information on Neti Pots, which search led me to YouTube in the first place….) I found myself chain clicking in ways I’m pretty sure I’d never normally do.
But I found this, which is awesome, I think. It was funny without being so funny that it made me laugh out loud, which would have triggered a coughing fit, which would have tainted the experience for sure.

I reluctantly recommend the Neti pot. I would advise a metal one, not one of the ceramic genie-lamp things… we broke ours already.
I was seriously considering one, and then I went to the doctor on Tuesday and they sent me home with a nasal rinse bottle – same idea, but this is a slightly pressurized plastic squeeze bottle, essentially. It’s helped so far….
