Finally, I recovered from this shit called cold and cough, especially the cough—I hate it. Thank God for the medicine that helped me recover, and I’m happy.

Thanks to my good Pahadi genes, all I can say is I’m not fat.   Let me give you a description of myself. I’m 5’10’’ (I guess I was 6’, but it is what it is). Tall, handsome (to me), not to all...
