you heard about a little bit of it last week. You're still in the in the shit last week. I was. Yeah, it wasn't like your worst. I think your

1:04.5

worst days were behind you, but like you were still really tired. Yeah, I would say tired and out of it. Like sort of forgetting. I mean not that I don't

1:13.5

always forget anyway. Good at forgetting. That's the fun of always forgetting when you have some sort of sickness that knocks you out. People just assume you're fine. There we go. Let me see if I can

Bo's life sort of welcome Bo really is he was like he was a share weather friend. He was not having it. Of all the I mean look he would the only

2:17.5

time you would come see me was it like 11 30 at night after you had gone to bed and he wanted to go out. Then I'd hear him bump

2:25.0

up against the door. And that's the on the night said he wasn't sleeping with me. I can't imagine there were many nights that he wasn't

2:34.0

sleeping with you. Well, towards the end he stopped sleeping with me. He was like very comfortable on the couch in the office. Yeah. I think he was just confused. Yeah, probably. He was like at whatever. It's not about our dog and how our dog was dealing with our sickness, my sickness.

2:53.0

So, okay, so the majority of the COVID symptoms I would say the thing you're all going to have to look out for if you get it is the fatigue, which is real.

3:05.0

Like I was tired for no reason and hungry, but not just tired, like not just like, oh, I need to take a nap. It was like you were a fatigue. Yes, like walking from your office to the house, which is 10 yards, not even.

3:21.0

Yeah, it's very close. It is really close. You were like exhausted doing. Yes, it was exhausting. I don't know why. I mean, I do know why I guess, right? You're not getting enough oxygen or whatever, but your body's also fighting off the infection.

3:52.0

Someone asked me because you know, very it was very kind. A lot of people sent us food meals, groceries. But I remember someone being like, wait, is Matt even hungry? And I was like, yes, he is hungry. Like he can't smell her taste, but he's hungry.
