So remember that day last month when Nate and I were certain we had COVID but both tested negative and “got over it” in like seven hours?

That’s because we didn’t have COVID.

We were idiots who left our humidifier half-full of water over the scorching summer, didn’t clean it, and then started running it that day. Nate actually suspected that the humidifier was the cause because that was the only thing that both of us were exposed to and the only thing that had been “different” over the past several days, but this was confirmed today when, after being stupid and running the humidifier again, I felt the same sort of awfulness I felt that day (Nate was feeling a little crappy as well, but I sit much closer to the humidifier all day than he does, so I get more exposure).

Supah fun.

At least that makes us more confident that we actually didn’t have COVID.
