I feel better in myself, systemically, if you know what I mean, but I've coughed right through last night and the night before, my throat is still sore on and off, the throat pain is moving into ear pain and my sinuses are filling up. Gah. The boiler man is coming today between 11-2 which is possibly the least convenient timeslot possible. No point going into work just to be there for an hour then come home again, and if he gets here at 2 he might well not finish till 4ish if it's something that can be fixed today, so I'll almost certainly not go in later. So I have taken today as holiday and am spending it wrapped in a blanket waiting for the bloke. The heating is broken at work again (4th time in 6 weeks) so I'm not too bothered about not being there.
