This was the cold where I in such bad shape that I could not work. Normally I’ll take a sick day out of respect of my coworkers, to let the worst of it blow off before I go into the office.
This time I was in such a general malaise I couldn’t even work at home, even though I had brought some back to try.
But the other big cost of such an extravaganza is the morning habits that have been fully broken for a week. With my impending work deadline, I had started to skip exercising the last couple weeks, and now I had fallen off the blog for a few days at a time.
I can catch up on the blog posting schedule, but daily mental exercise is something you don’t get back.
Just like that physical exercise.
