Sick, But Better

      After a lousy night with needling pains in every joint, dull aches in every muscle and a high-enough temperature that I probably could have slept in snow, I woke up sneezing, with a sweat-damp nightgown.  Now I have chills and the fountains of my sinuses remain unceasing. but the pain's down to a dull ache.

      Back to bed, I think.  I hardboiled an egg and made some toast for breakfast, and it just about wore me out.
