Being sick is no fun.

I have a nasty cold. Colds are caused by viruses and therefore cannot be actually treated. If you try to treat colds or other viruses with things like antibiotics, you’re waisting you time. Antibiotics are just what they sound like “against biological factors” like bacteria. Viruses don’t have the same makeup as a bacterial cell and therefore cannot be treated similarly to a bacterial infection like strep throat. The best you can do is treat the symptoms caused by the virus and wait it out. I’ve been waiting it out for two and a half days now and I feel miserable. I went to bed last night really early and didn’t want to get up this morning. I “slept” for about eleven and a half hours and I feel exhausted. I missed a class yesterday and I was contemplating missing today. I think instead that I’m going to go to the class, work for a little bit, try to find some decent soft food and go back to sleep before tutoring this afternoon. Hope you’re day is going better than mine.
