Mardis Gras 2020. Was down there for a buddy's bachelor party. That place is fucking disgusting. Had an absolute blast. Somewhere between the bars, constant parties, strip clubs, and 3 days of abusing my body as hard as I possibly could, I caught it.
Exactly two weeks later I woke up and felt like shit. Didn't lose smell or taste but just felt super lethargic and achy like I had the flu. Called the doctor and he basically said I'm young and healthy and not to come in and if I felt worse to go to the ER.
This was very early in all the shit, right as the lockdowns were getting started. Missed 3 days of work and stayed in bed most of the time. Tests weren't available back then unless you were in the hospital. But man was New Orleans a good time.
