Single and Sick: Not a Great Combination

Single and Sick: Not a Great Combination

The only thing in my head this week is a thick lingering pain from the face-splitting headache I had four days into the flu. That was Tuesday. Now it’s just dull pressure behind my eyeballs when I move them too quickly in any direction.

I was going write up a few nice Flu survival tips here. Things you can do, especially if you’re on your own, to survive the nasty respiratory influenza infestation everyone in the country seems to have right now.

The standards: drink plenty of clear fluids and keep hydrated, blah, blah, blah.

Winners for any illness.

Truth is, there’s only one way to battle this beast. One thing you can do, whether you're single or in a relationship or somewhere in between.

Nothing.

Do nothing.

Lots and lots of nothing.

Find a snugly blanket, find a comfy spot on the couch, find someone, anyone, willing to help care for you and do not move.

That’s what I’m doing right now.

Day seven.

I’m going back to bed.
