So, I'm sick. It's Covid-19, somehow. [profile] bunny_hugger too.

How did we get it? No really obvious answer. The thing out of the ordinary for us within the plausible infection window is going to that show at the Wharton, but the facility is lots of big open air spaces and it wasn't crowded. There was one party near us, down a row and to the right, but that's all. Day after that we went to pinball which is more plausible, as it's more crowded and we had longer contact with people. And then Sunday we went to [profile] bunny_hugger's parents and ---

Oh yeah. They have it too. There's a possibility that they actually gave it to us, by the vector of some of the people who were in their house all week installing new energy-efficient appliances. But that's a crisis because of their advanced age and rickety health. [profile] bunny_hugger and I can lie down and feel miserable a while. They have a rough enough time breathing at the best of times.

My temperature has risen as high as 98.1 degrees Fahrenheit, which I recognize is not classically regarded as a ``fever'' but I promise you, for me that's high.

Anyway last night I went to nap about 6 pm and when my alarm went off at 9 pm thought no, I can't possibly, and went back to sleep more, and I finally felt up to being awake about 1 pm today so that's the state I'm in. More on this as it comes to pass.

Trivia: The earliest known example of a living tea plant to make it to Europe arrived in 1863, for Linnaeus's study. Others he sought were lost to storms or were eaten by rats or were not tea at all. Source: Tea: Addiction, Exploitation, Empire, Roy Moxham.

Ugh. Here's to a speedy recover to you, BH and her parents.

Imagine how much worse it would be if you weren't vaccinated. (shudder)
