Headache

Couple days ago I was out walking and I noticed that even though I hadn't walked nearly as much as I usually do, yet I was feeling very tired and achy.  I thought it was maybe the alcohol I'd drunk the previous night, and thought no more of it once I got back home.  Then next day (yesterday) I woke up with the full works:  fever, hoarse voice, tickly throat, nose running like a faucet, and finally it dawned on me that I'd come down with a cold.  I drank some hot tea, then went back to bed and slept a few more hours.  I woke up past noon, drank some more hot tea, then I threw on the big full-length coat over the clothes I'd slept in, went down to the little pharmacy in the complex and bought the same medication I'd used the last time I was sick.  I took the medicine, went back to bed and slept some more.  And now, past midnight (not sleepy any more) I'm feeling a headache coming on, on top of everything else.

Good thing I took this shot days before and saved it.
