and　neck　with　a　damp　cloth。　〃Thats　quite　some　cold；〃　he　muttered。

〃It　just　hung　on。　I　thought　itd　be　better　by　now。〃

〃Why　did　you　leave　New　York　in　the　first　place？　You　should　have　stayed

in　bed。〃

He　was　annoyed　with　her。　She　thought　that　was　unfair。　〃It　wasnt　snowing

at　home；〃　she　argued。　〃I　had　no　idea　Id　run　into　this　mess；　or　that　it

would　get　so　bad　so　fast。〃

〃Forget　the　weather。　You　should　have　been　in　bed　anyway；　with　a　cold

like　this。〃

〃Good　God；　Mitch；　I　cant　put　my　life　on　hold　every　time　I　get　a　cold。〃

〃Yeah；　well　if　you　dont　take　better　care　of　yourself；　you　may　put　your
