When I mentioned yesterday {and this morning} that it was just my throat that was bothering me, I think I jynxed myself. Cuz a few hours ago, I started sneezing and now my nose is all stuffy and I can't bend over or look down without it running.

Work felt slow, but according to the numbers, it wasn't all that slow. I was glad it didn't feel busy cuz I was in my 'I don't give a flying fuck' mood. I had a somewhat decent crew today, so I didn't have to pay too close attention to what they were doing. Everything got done and got done fast. So that was good. Overall the work day was alright, but with my lack of energy, and lack of caring, it could have been much better.

*sniff**cough* Ugh!

I went to the store again, after I got off work, and bought more gatorade {gatorade was on sale, I can't afford Orange juice ~at least not the good kind~} and some Tylenol cold to take to work with me tomorrow. I want to see if that'll do any good.

I'm very, VERY anti-medication cuz 99.3% of the time it doesn't work with me. All Nyquil does is help me sleep, but that's why I take it. Advil, Alieve, Tylenol, Midol, Asprin, none of the normal medication that people take on a normal basis, have any effect on me. I figure if I take the medication, and it still doesn't work, I can complain without reprieve.

When I got home, I took some Nyquil {I can feel the fog starting to roll in}, took a hot shower and commented on people's blogs as promised. I'm now sitting here, obviously, writing my own blog and I've got the movie French Kiss on TV. Its a really funny romantic comedy.

I plan on taking more Nyquil right before I go to bed so that I can sleep through the whole night. Don't worry, it'll have been the 6 hours required between doses. I only try to OD on Halls, hehe {they actually say on the back of the package: repeat every 2 hours as needed; that's crazy cuz the cough drops are only effective the 30 maybe 45 minutes before they dissolve completely} Whatver.

I want to rip out my throat and now I want to remove my nose as well. I can't taste anything, and I can't smell anything. Coughing hurts, talking hurts, sneezing is annoying and its not recommended eating cookies {soft, chewy ones are okay} whenever you have a sore throat.

Alright, the fog is starting to take over and I'm having trouble concentrating enough to write much more on this blog. I'll be back on tomorrow to write.

Wow Midol doesn't work for you? That sucks. :(

Nyquil is a godsend :) I think it's the codeine in it or something...it knocks me out like nothing else (well, besides percocet, but yeah...hehe, that's not exactly over the counter).

FEEL BETTER! Get lots of rest...and gatorade is good to drink when you're sick. Anything that can get the electrolytes back in your system is good :)

Medication doesn't work well with me, either. =/ My parents are opposites on the med front: dad says "Meds will cure you!" and ma says "Meds can kill you!" Both legetimate arguments. *shrug* Whateva.

HOPE YOU FEEL BETTER!!

Hope you'll get well soon!! Would stuffing tissue up your nose help you stop it from running?

Thanks! Yea, the addiction will wear off. I can't wait for the next book!! I wonder how are they going to change Bella without breaking the treaty. Well, really, I hate to not being able to talk about it without giving out spoilers.

Definitely worth it.
Sorry to hear you're sick, too. I think that if people actually quarantined themselves when they got sick, then we wouldn't have so much illness in the winter months. Then again, modern society isn't conducive to such because we have to keep working or keep going to school or else our livelihoods would suffer.

I'm looking at your weather pixie right now, though. Seems like such a beautiful day. Sick or not, I hope you get to enjoy it.
