Well, I'm not miserable or anything, but dang if I didn't get a/the cold. If there were nobody else at work, I'd go in & work, albeit perhaps with a pinch less pizzazz than I sometimes bring to my duties. Does "pizzazz" really have 4 Zs? It does today, anyway.

I take some comfort that I'm not miserably stopped up (which always sounds like "stomped up" when people who are stopped up report it, messing with how it seems it should be spelled), and so far there's been no headache or exhausting coughing or such. It's the most pins-and-needles-y sneeze cold I've had in years.

I can't really complain. I was on quite a good roll of not being sick, and this isn't so bad. Achoo. It just looks like I'm crying all the time. And CPAP use is compromised. And I haven't brought in the trash can from yesterday morning, so I could be in trouble with the neighbors. Guess I'll make that my goal for the day.


"though" banishing report: I deleted three of 'em during the composition of this post. [A person shouldn't need any directive transition as much as I employ that one.]

"though" banishing report

I think that Starnes deleted "though" from EJ's work many times, which has made me shy away from using it with much regularity. I'm an "anyway"er, m'self.

That's interesting. I suppose "although" is proper & all. My banishment is about its hedginess, its balance, its inclusion of both sides of the coin, its indulgence of my sometimes virtually never-ending seeking of the other side with any assertion. It being R. March & all.

hoping your cold passes quickly, and that I was not the one to pass the germs onto you. I've been sick since the day after we saw you. It's getting better each day, but I could do without hacking up stuff for a day or two:)
