Sickness in the Summertime

I know I am sick when I go to bed early, 8pm last night. Plus, the whole stuffed up head and burning magma feeling in my throat confirms something is amiss. Being sick in the summer is horrendous, especially in the midst of a humid 90 degree mini-heatwave. I can't snuggle under comforters and sack out on my sofa surrounded by kleenex boxes. I have to crank up the AC in my bedroom which gives me the dry painful air to breathe. Lying on the sofa requires many fans pointed at me which basically blows germs back in my face. If I survive orange belt testing tomorrow without passing out from the heat and my cold, I'll be lucky!
