Some Sort of Cold

Since the day after Christmas (really, since Christmas night), I've been sick with a cold (I think). It was worst on the 26th, when I felt fatigued all day and had a few odd spells of lightheadedness. My only major cold symptom is the congestion, which led to a sore throat, runny nose and full ears. Yuck.

But resting in bed for a few days, with the humidifier keeping the postnasal drip at bay, has left me with some severe cabin fever. It's not helped by the fact that with Christmas being over there's just not much left to do. The post-holiday blues are the worst. New Year's isn't a big enough holiday to make up for losing the fun of anticipation.

What do I have left to look forward to now besides snow, cold walks and schoolwork? Joy. I wish it was Christmas again.
