Just When I'm Getting So Close

[tourmaline]

I have a rotten cold in advanced development. I woke up to it yesterday, it was caught from my mother. It's one of those colds which can't decide whether it's going to have coughing, nasal "fun", a sore throat or aching ribs as its main feature. Whatever it is, I hope it's over & done with pretty sharpish because I don't want it spoiling my enjoyment of Friday night. And I want it to let me get a decent night's sleep across the week.
