Covid Update (Patreon)

Well fuck...

I took care of my wife when she had covid.  Obviously I'd been exposed to it.  I just assumed I was asymptomatic or something.  So when she got better, (no more fever, no more chills, appetite and energy picked up) I breathed a sigh of relief, and life went back to normal last week.

This morning, I woke up in a sweat like a fever just broke, (never had a fever), and because I'm a gross guy, I sniffed my pits to check the damage as it were.  Nothing.  That's weird.  Then I go to the bathroom and check my deodorant.  No smell there.  I don't THINK it's unscented.  I check the baby powder (because OF COURSE I have baby powder in my bathroom).  No scent either.  

I've lost my scent of smell.  Instant red flag.  

So I go to the doctor and manage to get a quick covid tested, worried that it won't matter if I get negative result, because it'll probably be a false negative.

Turns out I didn't have to worry about false negatives.  I got a positive.

So yeah.  Now I've got Covid.  

I'm lucky enough that I still feel pretty well.  The lack of smell is disturbing, but that's it so far.  No cough, no fever, and my oxygen levels are well in the.  Maybe a liiiiittle sluggish, but that could just be because of the day I've had running around everywhere to get tested and stressing out etc. etc.

So don't worry too much about me.  I'm still gonna be working this week, including something for Cushypen and something for patreon at the very least.
