I was steamrollered by a cold yesterday. Bah. It set on quickly in the afternoon and really got into swing in the middle of last night. I'm holding it at bay right now with ample doses of Dayquil and pseudophedrine, but that combination loops my brain right out of the galaxy with such efficiency that I'm not sure I'm any better off.
Yesterday I had planned to start a three-day experiment (which I'll describe later), but an afternoon meeting went late and I ran out of time to do it. That wouldn't be a problem, as I just pushed it all back a day, but now that I have a constant post-rollercoaster sensation of vertigo, I really only want to be at home.
My predicament has to do with the timing of this experiment. I'm supposed to start it at 3:00. I don't really want to stay here until then. I could start it now, but I'd have to pick it up again -- to misquote Dickens -- all the earlier the next morning. That means being at work at 5:30 am. The buses start running at 7:00 am, so I'd have to bike to work tomorrow.
With a cold.
High on stimulants.
Sounds like fun.
