Sometimes I get a cold and I'm pretty much able to fight it off after two or three days. But occasionally there are nasty ones, which keep me out of action for longer. I first started getting the symptoms of this cold the Friday before last, and I'm still dealing with it. It hasn't been the worst, most intense cold I've ever had. But it's one which has lingered like the worst bad guest, sapping my energy, mucking up my thermostat making it difficult for me to sleep. I have a few more complaints about it, but that's just getting into the area of Too Much Information.
I hope it is totally gone by the time I fly to Hawaii in less than 2 weeks now. If this cold is still affecting my sinuses, I know that I'll have intense pain during the descent of the plan. Last time it was like somebody hammering nails into the back of my neck.
Anyway, I just wanted to write a little to explain what was going on and why I've been fairly quiet here lately.
I am in this unusual situation
where I am obliged to travel to Hawaii once a year. Because I still
don't quite feel ready to leave behind my US permanent residency, I'm
going again this year. It was a bit more difficult to plan this year,
and for a moment, there was a chance that I might return to Minnesota
instead. But no, I'm going back to Oahu for a third time, but this time
will be completely different because I'll be travelling with my
girlfriend. I'll be travelling from September 10 to September 16.
