Sick :/

Falling sick is no fun; falling sick in India is especially no fun. So whenever we come here, we take great pains to stay as healthy as possible.

Drink only boiled water. (Which means even though I’m in India, I can’t eat Pani Puri. Life can be rather unfair sometimes.)

Peel all fruits and vegetables before eating them.

Actually, try to cook all vegetables before eating them.

Take vitamin supplements and anti-malarial tablets.

And if you feel even the slightest bit dizzy, or if you have a back ache or headache, or if you cough twice or feel just a tad warm, drop everything and go to bed.

So no work for me today; I’m supposed to stay home and sleep, so I don’t legitimately fall sick.

(Which I don’t mind at all. Definitely don’t want a repeat of my Taj Mahal shenanigans.)
