One “flu” over the cuckoo’s nest

Over the turn of the New Year, I was ‘down’ with a terribly ‘flu’. It’s hard for me to tell if that’s irony or simply a play of words, where I should be down with something that suggests I should be flying. When I get a cold, I usually do my little concoction of vitamin C, crocin, steam inhalations, and anti-allergic stuff, and it’s gone in 3 days. This time it stayed with me for 2 weeks. The virus didn’t want to seem to leave – just like a delayed Air India flight.
