Monument to the Anti-Glam!

There are a few things that could be more Anti-Glamorous than a cold. Really: red eyes, running nose, nasal accent, body heat, headache. GEEE! I can only count a few right now, including:
wearing sandals with socks (BIG no-no in fashion, but costume extensively used in this part of the world)
ice cubes on wine glasses (BIG no-no in world-class etiquette)
having a stain a spot of chili sauce on your shirt or tie (also VERY common after Thai Vermicelli or noodle soup)
picking your nose in public (alone at home is OK, but do not look at yourself in the mirror while doing it)
(Note: If you remember things that are anti-Glamorous, please remind me so I add them to my list)

Today: I have a cold. I did not go to my office. I stayed working at home and here are the stats:
drank EASILY 7 liters of hot water;
used 3 boxes of facial tissue to blow my nose;
went to the bathroom 26 times;
and God knows how many times I sneezed and coughed

Here’s a picture that shows the status in which you could find me at 4 PM this afternoon.
