Better?
I think I'm finally mostly not sick. I don't think I'd call myself quite well yet, but this silly cold has lasted a week which is quite long enough, thank you! It has been probably a year since I was really ill, so I suppose it was about time. It always amazes me how much colds affect my brain -- a few days ago I was making pasta sauce (spicy enough that I could smell it) and I very nearly asked my mother if she could smell it too. Over the phone.
