35. Seems like I caught a flu bug in 2018-19 like yours.

Sunday

Jesus Christ! I kept thinking .."I'll be fine in a few days"
The Flu Bug answered my cheerful reality...."Fuck you Asshole....sleep like a stick of dynamite...Shit your pants..
...I'll tell you when to get well and not a God-Damn day before!"

Not fun that year..
