Immune system is shot

I think that I have gotten sick every month since November. While what I'm currently going through (sore throat followed by sinus issues and now painful coughs) isn't as bad as December's illness, it's extremely frustrating. I think my white blood cells have gone on strike or something, because it seems that my immune system is completely shot.

When you're sick, everything takes extra effort to achieve. Plus, when it interferes with your sleep, you're groggy and more likely to forget or neglect things. It's been a major struggle the past week.

Next autumn, I will definitely be taking flu shots and whatever else they're offering. Screw the old He-Man mentality when it comes to dealing with illness.
