The bad stuff always happens to me....

Monday: I woke up with a slightly sore throat and started loading up on Vitamin C and multi vitamins.

Tuesday: I woke up with a full on cold - feeling generally crap, and getting worse as the day continues. I was teaching all day, my throat was hurting, and I managed to escape work at 4:30pm and go to bed. Unfortunatly I was too sick to go to spanish or entertain Sarah. Sarah arrived about 8:30pm, and thanfully she was happy to vege on the couch, catchup and watch dodgy tv. I took some drugs and slept through most of the night.

Wednesday: Another day of training - and given I knew I would feel worse in the afternoon and I wanted to hang out with Sarah, I headed into work early. I felt slightly better than yesterday, but not much. Once I was sitting at work and being vaguely productive, and other people were walking into the office and saying hi - I realised I HAD NO VOICE. I WAS VOICELESS!! ONE DAY before my HOLIDAY!
I had to do training today - but with no voice it was kinda difficult - so I managed (after much begging) to get one of the Australian trainers to cover me. I visited the doctor and got loads more drugs - including antibiotics and 8 other things to take at all different times... I then completed work, and managed to get home by 2pm for my first nap.

I got woken up by someone breaking into my flat - actually it was Sarah fighting with the locks. We chatted for a while and it turns out she hadn't slept last night - so we decided on another nap. Now she is still sleeping, but I should wake her.

My plan for the next 24 hours, is lots of drug and lots of sleep - and very little talking, and hopefully I'll feel loads better by the time I get off the plan in london to meet with Will and head of to Paris.

Bloody awful timing - why does this always happen to me???
