symptoms
This week I have been mainly dealing with an outbreak of the dreaded lurgie at home. We think the little girl got it it first, and was little bit porly one afternoon. Then me. I was a little bit poorly one evening. Then my wife and son who have had a several days long puke-fest. I've running aroung dealing with the outbreaks of vomit and bum gravy and scrubbing everything with bleach. And then needing a beer and a chill afterwards so i have been up a bit too late the last couple of nights.
It's funny though that when I felt unwell, all that happened - and this is typical - was a sharp increase in my level of incompetence. I was cooking chilli for tea at the time and first managed to cut my thumb, then nearly burnt the chilli. And towards the end of dinner realised that I had forgotten to put beans in. I had cooked the beans and they were sitting patiently, but in vain, in a dish in the kitchen. There were hints during the meal, like "Why didn't you put sweetcorn in it?" and "What's the difference between this and bolognese?" but I couldn't even remember what the difference was supposed to be,
