A virus in the wake of the craziest weekend of the year

Just wanted to note that I haven’t blogged lately because I’ve caught an annoying (and fairly persistant) cold over the weekend. No coincidence that it happened now either. As a few of you might know, I live in Duesseldorf, Germany, in the heart of the Rhineland and it was carnival last weekend, which means much time was spent outdoors wading through huge crowds of people. That, and the imbibed alcoholic beverages made me misjudge the temperature. And perhaps the lovely tradition of bützen (try guessing what that is if you’re not a native of Cologne) played its part too.

Anyway, I’ll report back when I’m virus-free again.
