In hindsight, the last few days were a mistake.

Last week I got sick, and seemed to make a quick recovery in a few days. Then just as Helix arrived for a stay, it came back with a vengeance. Instead of 'just a cold', it quickly turned on my sinuses and ears, and wiped me out for most of the week. I probably spent most the time she was here complaining and suffering. (I'm seriously miserable when I'm sick).

Just when I thought I was over it for a second time, I headed off to Portland,OR for a tech disclosure event.
You can guess what happened next. As soon as I got there I started feeling a bit crappy again. By the end of the event people were even noticing that I was unusually quiet. When it finally came to fly out last night, I could barely see, as my eyes constantly streamed tears and my nose felt like, well, it sucked. After what was possibly the most miserable flight I've endured, I'm finally back home (whilst I've been away someone seems to have turned down the thermostat in Boston. Seriously, it's like 20 degrees colder or something), where I intend to do absolutely nothing for the next few days. If I'm not over this quickly, I'll hit up a doctor and take some time off.
