Sick as the proverbial dog

Well, things in my life have not been helped by the fact that I have been battling the Cold of Doom this week. Actually, it's not that bad. Mostly just the sniffles, which today predictably turned into the first stages of laryngitis.

I think I mentioned once or twice in this space that any time I get a cold, no matter what the symptoms other people have, I will inevitably lose my voice within a few days. So I got the cold on Monday, and today I sound like Lauren Bacall with a mouthful of gravel. Not good.

Tomorrow my voice will be intermittent, and depending on how mean this cold decides to be with me I'll either have it back by Saturday or it'll fade even more, just in time for my Pirates game. :P
