Wednesday I used my one-day pass to get into Bally's with my wife. The pool is nice. The spa and sauna are also very nice. But swimming at my usual pace for 12 laps (of varying strokes) was not recommended in my current state of health. That plus it already being past dinnertime made it much more of a workout than usual. I didn't even get to test the machines, and I even found out that the same person can't use more than one one-day pass every 90 days. Blah.

Anyway, the sore throat is down to irritation level, leaving "feeling icky & achy" as my top symptom. Here's hoping this bugger goes away soon. I've definitely been chugging a lot more water than usual to cope with it.
