Attack of the Crud 2024

2024-01-26

Yesterday late I fell ill with thick viscous exudate from my sinues and a bit of a productive cough.

Felt lousy too. It was all late breaking and my night was pretty uncomfortable.

I have had a number of people attach a name to this mystery illness. I personally just call it "the crud".

The cough, the runny nose were the primary hallmarks of what others are saying is some viral illness beset me in the tender young youth of my old age.

I would call it some viral upper respiratory illness but there is no fever, just some malaise and I'm fighting it off fairly well and expect to kick it sometime in the next day or two.

The Aleve I'm going to start should make the sleep less fitful.

I suppose I could have been more vigilent with the hand washing and more in the way of personal preventives but it's too late for all that now. I'm washing my hands in an effort to keep Mom and my friends from coming down with it all.

I don't think it's COVID-19 either and the stupidity of that memory of governmental meddling means I'm not pursuing any public health advice from those political power seeking morons either.

So if they bring me to your emergency room just push me out in traffic but kindly don't intervene otherwise.

Hope you are "more well" that I am right now.
