That Cold’s Not Gone Yet
I’ve been off work now for two days with this stinking cold. Now my throat doesn’t hurt any more, something deeper in my throat hurts, so when I cough, it’s not a surface pain, it’s a pain deep into my chest – only not quite at my chest (yet).
I tried to stay in bed all morning and succeeded, however, it’s not like I was sleeping. I was just laying there. I think these drugs I’m taking are keeping me awake. I don’t have a good reaction to dextramethorphan – gets me stoned – and apparently keeps me awake. Just what you want when you’re sick, to stay awake and revel in your illness.
Anyway, I’m drinking my neo citran – is that more lemony than it used to be? I tell ya, that tastes just like a lemon to me now, I thought it used to be a sickeningly sweet kinda lemony taste – not now, it’s puckering me up.
Needless to say I haven’t worked out since Tuesday. I haven’t had a shower since Tuesday (ewww). Wow, I didn’t realize that. However, that explains why my hair looks so good.
Ok, maybe I’ll have a shower in a little while. I’ll wait til these chills stop happening and then go run a really hot shower, come out and put my nightgown, and robe, and slippers, and maybe a blanket on me. Now that you bring it up, the computer room seems a little chilly.

is the new 30. I want the world to close their mouths when they’re eating or chewing gum. If they don’t, I want to elbow them in the face.
