So the plague finally got me. Having avoided it for 3 years and 9 months, and five vaccinations (count them, Bob, five), I don't get to complain or act like it's all dramatic. I got a sore throat on Monday night, tested on Tuesday morning with no real expectation of a positive result, got a positive result, and got on Paxlovid before the day was over.
Canceled: four non-date social plans, one date, one handstand lesson, several workouts, about 3 days of work.
Unexpected achievements: read some books and played a whole lot of Void Stranger.
I never got a fever, although I did get nausea/puking the first night, and![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
heisenbug slept a suspicious amount all week but never actually tested positive on any test (Cue or antigen). And I didn't really get anything done, which I guess is to be expected when one is sick. I managed to shower every other day and finish putting in annual reviews for my people at work, and that's about it. Presumably the other 7 billion people on the planet managed to keep things going without me.
I've taken all the Paxlovid and had two negative antigen tests on two consecutive days now, so mayyyybe that's over? I'm going to go really easy on a return to exercise though. I'm conscious that there's still some kind of cleanup going on in my body, and I don't want any more lingering effects.
