I caught a bad cold at work, so as a result, I took a sick day to stay home today and try to recover. I’m very congested, but my nose is running non-stop and even more annoyingly my right eye is non-stop watering. Benadryl helps a little bit but not that much. I’m miserable. I can’t do any music right now. It’s hard enough to type this entry. Mostly I’m watching YouTube non-stop.
WHY would I put this in a blog post? Because this is a real thing that happens to musicians (and YouTubers.) We make content and the process of making the content brings us joy, so when we’re sick and we can’t do it, it makes us miserable. I have a lot of songs I want to write and videos I want to shoot, but it will all have to wait. No one ever blogs about being sick and not being able to make music, so now I’ve at least done that.
