Day 251-254: Not sick all winter...but now??

Seriously. I have been singing my flu shot's praises all season long, swearing it not only prevented the flu but apparently any other hint of cough, sniffle or sore throat. Well, it seems my luck ran out and it did with a wallop. I woke up one morning this week with a sore throat, and pretty much came to 4 days later, spending the majority of the time in a hazy, stuffed up cloud. Finally, FINALLY, life seems to be clearing up and I'm feeling like a normal person again. Well, whatever you might define normal... :) So, the question is, is it better to get little bouts of sickness, small colds that are easy to get through your regular day with or just get a knockdown, knockout punch of a cold that puts you out of commission for a few days once or twice a year and are pretty healthy the rest of the time? Who knows really, I'm just glad I can taste food and breathe through my nose again. I don't think I'll mind if I go another 6 months a very healthy person.
