Sick, Flu

2008-04-16 – 2008-04-20

Grade: 3

Started out with sniffles Wednesday. Became a knock-you-for-six fever on Saturday.

Dance course Monday night followed by two glasses of wine and a beer over the course of 4hrs, plus bad sleep, plus a couple of hectic training sessions on Tuesday. Wednesday woke up feeling sniffley. Took it easy during the day - skipped training and such, but it did it stop me from going to the Ambassador's for dinner? More wine and lack of sleep. Still sniffley following day. Feeling better Friday, and couldn't resist going out with the nice company. Woke up Saturday morning with a fever, and was decked all day long. Maybe if you haven't been drinking much for a while you should ease into it - you know take just one or two, and get an early night, and then gradually increase the load ;)
