The bad souvenir
Shortly after my parents returned from Las Vegas, my father came down with a cold. He took a covid test and it came back negative, at least. He'd been pretty adamant about making sure he had masks to bring along for the trip, but did he actually *wear* the masks? Nope. Just for show.
Yes, well, like father, like daughter. He's been doing better thanks to generic Nyquil, so I didn't end up wearing a mask in the car with him when we went shopping on Saturday. Bad move: I started feeling it in my throat glands by Saturday night. I started myself on Dayquil liqui-caps pretty quickly and I'm keeping it at bay, phew, but this was not ideal.
I did get asked if I wanted them to bring me back anything from Vegas. You know, I don't have a need for anything. I definitely did not need a cold. This was not wanted, peeps. Next time, please bring back nothing.
