Yesterday I got sick. For entire night I was not able to sleep properly. My nose was running, I felt horibly. This morning was not any better.
I canceled my plans for today and stayed at home. I was sure I contracted Corona. In my head I was going through all my activities of the week before. I was mostly at home or at my girlfriend's. The only time I got out of my "bubble" was when I went to play some badminton and then for a lunch. Oh, and I went to the grocery store a couple of times. Not very risky activities.
But that did not helpmuch. My paranoia grew stronger. I booked a quick testing. The site is near my home, I went there and got tested. I then went home waiting for the results.
Negative.
So. It is not Corona, it must be common cold. I felt a bit of relief. I got cold. It is such time of the year. It is a bit unexpected ... but I guess I should have properly dried my hair after badminton. Or maybe I should have worn warmer pants, shoes or something.
I guess I dodged a bullet this time :)
