The worst is definitely over. But there's still this persistent cough to deal with. I've resumed fasting a couple of days ago after missing nine whole days because of that stupid streptococcus episode. That's about a third of the whole Ramadhan. Most Muslim women don't even miss that many due to the menses. I suppose I shouldn't make fun of 'em who's gotta "hoist the Japanese flag" during that time of month anymore in the future. Look who's joining 'em to replace the days missed fasting now.

It did take a while. After all, there were several hundred million to send out. But the cards are on their way now nonetheless. Thanks to those who participated.
