Well, I am back now. I had planned to provide an installment last week, but I had a bad cold and just did not feel much like setting at the keyboard.
Personally, I do not mind the coughing nor the sneezing, or even the sore throat. The one thing that bothers me the worst is to lose my ability to thermocompensate, such that I feel either cold or hot when I should be in my comfort zone of temperature. Aspirin assists me to regulate a bit better, but being well is the better feeling.
