Sick
I have been sick for like 10 days now. This is the one period of the year when I really can’t afford to be sick. Pub carols was last sunday and tonight, and I need a clear and strong voice to lead those… I didn’t have it either evening. Yesterday there was a lovely brunch with my cousins, the Finest Kind christmas concert at the black sheep, and dinner with folks after. Then I stayed up until 1:30 getting my radio show ready. Then I woke up early (why, body, why?). Today I did the radio show, two hours of SOCAN paperwork, then pub carols. I am shot. I have been pushing myself hard for even a healthy Colin, so I’ve been masking the cold with a pharmacopœia (yay, ligatures)… now I need to really give myself a rest, let myself be sick, so I can get better. Earlier this week I thought I had licked the cold, but then I had to push start my car in the freezing on Wed night and the cold came back with a vengeance. I took two days off work this week, and I don’t think that after this weekend I’ll be going in tomorrow, either. Whoa. Wah. Poor me. This concludes this whinging missive about my health.
