Crud without the Con
Aug. 5th, 2019 09:01 pmI did not go to Bicon for various reasons. So why do I have con crud? My throat is as itchy and scratchy as if I'd been snogging a whole load of interesting strangers with all sorts of exciting bacteria living on their tonsils, and I am as tired as if I'd spent the whole weekend partying instead of sleeping. Hmmm.
Fortunately, it doesn't actually seem to be oral thrush from my new inhaler. Pretty sure it's just some sort of viral or bacterial infection.
Though I am curious about how I could have caught a viral or bacterial infection when I have literally not left the house in a week. Richard's been in and out, but he hasn't been unwell for at least several weeks. I suppose he could theoretically be a disease vector without getting ill himself, but it seems unlikely.
