I think I'm coming down with something — 我感觉自己好像要感冒了——

scratchy throat, stuffy nose, that heavy, achy feeling all over. 嗓子干痒、鼻子发堵,浑身又沉又酸痛。

I take my temperature, and sure enough, I'm running a slight fever. 量了下体温,果不其然,有点低烧。

So I go into full recovery mode. 于是我直接开启了全面养病模式。

I use a nasal spray to clear my blocked nose, 用鼻喷剂通了通堵住的鼻子,

and suck on a lozenge to soothe my sore throat. 嘴里含了颗润喉糖来缓解嗓子疼。

I make a big mug of hot tea with honey and lemon, 泡了一大杯柠檬蜂蜜热茶,

wrap myself in a blanket, and try to sweat it out. 把自己裹在毯子里,想捂出一身汗来。

Most of all, I let myself rest — 最重要的是,让自己彻底好好歇歇——

no pushing through, no pretending I'm fine. 不再硬撑,也不假装自己没事。

Getting sick is annoying, 生病确实挺烦人的,

but it's also the body's way of forcing you to slow down when you won't do it yourself. 但这也是身体在逼你慢下来,谁让你平时自己总不肯停呢。

I set my medicine and a glass of water by the bed, 我在床头放好药和一杯水,

and give in to a long afternoon nap. 然后安心地睡了个长长的午觉。
