There is a plague running around Bordeaux. Half the city is sick and the other half is soon to follow. It’s just not that big a city and people are heavily reliant on public transportation. Add in the cold weather and a dash of holiday stress and you’ve got…the plague.

I’ve been feeling poorly for almost a week. And of course the faster you fall the worse it is. I was feeling fine. I woke the next morning really congested. By early evening I could already tell I had lost the battle. Now almost a week later and I’ve got a nasty cough and sinus infection. Yay!

I’m just keeping my fingers crossed that I can keep up with my school work, my actual work and the apartment hunting and be well enough to fly relatively pain free in 10 (ok really 9) days at this point. So on that note – I’m going to go to bed and hopefully wake up in a much better place. Keep your fingers crossed.
