Being ill

It’s funny how most people will assume you’re an idiot when you’re over clothed – e.g. wearing a hat, scarf and coat in the office. Nobody will think that just maybe you’re cold cause you’re about to become ill and you just want to add an out of office reply, send that report you promised and delegate all your work to your colleagues.

I’m not that ill anymore, I’m quite ok. The only problem is that I can’t spend 8 hours at work since after about 4 my energy plunges and I can barely sit anymore. It’s a hint to go home and lie down and have a midday nap. Funny how you can loose all the power you had in just a few days. Fighting illness seems to be quite a difficult task. Almost like weightlifting.

    I know exactly what you mean. I’m wearing a cap in this rather warm weather after my ear infection and there’s no shortage of strange looks.
