Day 98: It seems a new standard has been instituted. For most of my life, I've bragged that I just don't get sick, but the last three or four Januaries have shattered that enviable record. Last year, a cold went into bronchitis and then progressed to pneumonia, keeping me down for six weeks. So far, this is just a cold, and I'm giving it the Aboriginal treatment, i.e., snuffling water up my nose every few hours to wash out the inside of my head. It's helping. I'll spare you the remaining complaints. Just suffice to say that if I don't seem to be my usual perky self...well, it took every scrap of energy I had to set up this shot.
