23-02-18 - Saturday I - Mostly Ill

This week I have mostly been ill. Only a cold, but where a few decades ago I would have struggled on, disclaiming that it was "only a flesh wound", these days it normally feels as though my brain has been removed and replaced by cotton wool, and the best thing to do is repair to bed for as long as I can put up with the fetid smell of my sweaty, ill body.

 

I took the opportunity to rewatch The Expanse, a series on Amazon Prime, which I did start watching previously, but I was mostly drunk at the time and so I thought it would benefit from a rewatch. Indeed, I was right, it's a very enjoyable show, and I have almost reached the end of the first series. 

I am on the mend now though, so things are getting back to normal. It's good, sometimes, to take an enforced rest; it does make me appreciate life on occasion. 

TTFN.
