Epic Cold
My cold is just... gah. I haven't been able to sleep for the last three nights from between 3 and 6 am, but John let me sleep in late during the day. I was getting up at noon and today I finally forced myself to get up at my usual time just so that I might have a chance of sleeping tonight. I wish my brain would stop.
And the cold is just hitting my whole head, sinuses, eyes, nose, throat, and it's at that thick horrible stage where I just can't seem to breathe. My massage appointment seems to be rushing it along, too. Gah... And best yet, because of my breathing medications, I can't take any aspirin related painkillers and the Tylenol just isn't working on this sinus headache.
Just shoot me.
Does anyone else find it funny or odd that I still managed to write a 3600 word fic because I'd told someone I'd have it to them to beta? I think it's actually not too bad, either.

listless
But pseudofed's been working and not interacting with anything. *smiles*
The mugs of boiling water for breathing are helping immensely though, now. Mmmm... peppermint tea.
I don't know if it actually WORKED, but it was something I did.)
Lol, that's too awesome that you wrote 3600 words regardless of health. You're a true writer (if there was ever any doubt). I'm the same way; if I say I'll do something, I'll do it regardless of whatever else is happening XD
Heh. I'm glad someone else out there empathizes with Must Get It Done!! Yay!
god... I actually slept last night, it... helped immensely. The current scones this morning didn't hurt either.
First sleep that lasted more than 4-5 hours in a row.
So tired of being sick. Glad you're feeling better.
*hugs you warmly*
Yeah.. tired of being sick. I'm better, now... not perfect, but I can actually feel myself getting better... that is to the good.
I usually just pile up pillows or stuff so that I', halfway sitting rather than lying down. I know a friend who puts stuff under her matrass, making her matrass go up.
Also, it's a great excuse to drink buckets and buckets of tea everywhere you go ;)
And can you use nosespray? If not, salty water on body temprature will work good, too. My mom always used to keep it warm AND close by by keeping the bottle between her cleaverage.
It all added up to, finally, a good night's sleep.
The saline nose spray sounds like a REALLY good idea... thank you so much!!
*huggles* I really am glad to hear you had a good night's sleep.
Thank you!!
And they really help. If anything, they soothe the throat. Something about zinc.
Zinc's good at virus destruction, actually.
Thanks!! I'll use them today.
Nope doesn't surprise me a bit. You're the responsible type of friend. That's a good thing for your friends, but sometimes not always so much for you.
Get better babe.
Yeah. You have my sympathies as well.
Yeah, to the last. *laughs* Definitely...
