A cold. Not Covid. Just a cold. People are still getting colds.

Go figure. My wife got it first. Marched right into the closet and pulled down one of those free in-home COVID tests. She had no fever, but was sniffling and coughing. And the COVID test was negative. She took another one the next day, just to be sure.

Of course, I started sniffling and coughing a few days later. Stuck a thermometer in my mouth. Under 98 degrees. No fever. No other symptoms. I saved the Covid tests for some other time, though. My wife had a cold, and now I have one. Still no fever. OTC remedies are working like they usually do: sort of.

So, If I get a fever I'll take one of those tests. I doubt that will happen, though.

It seems strange to feel relieved to have a cold. I hate colds. But, when you think about it..
