“Woe is me to the third degree” - De La Soul
Ok it’s been almost a record breaking three weeks that Elise has had this cold. But in defense of my immune system, I do believe that I’ve actually had two different colds. The first one was completely in my chest, and shortly after that left (i had like a 1 day break.. probably more like a couple of hours) I got quite the head cold. I took some Sinutab and let me tell you that it really does dry out your sinuses and breathing passages… so much so you feel like your mouth and throat is a desert of sorts. So now I feel REALLY good but my throat is kinda raw and dry. I s’pose that I can’t win. I just really want to be better for my birthday.

The weather here slays me. Windy, rainy, freezy, sleety, muggy valley. If it were possible i’m sure it’d try to be all of those things at once. Last week it was nice. This week it’ll rain and then mist, and then schpritz, and then be overcast… except of course for the one day it’s damned sunny. I’m sick… how is my body supposed to deal with this? I think I would’ve shaken this cold after 4-5 days if the weather hadn’t decided to do cartwheels… but NOOOOOOOOOO… Elise is on the 10th day of her cold. That’s day 10, folks. I’m sure my allergies have something to do with it too, but c’mon. Mother nature, cut me some damned slack. You can’t even rely on the weather reports cause they change enormously every couple of hours. Fifteen minutes before the sky opens up the weather guys go “OH YEAH… there’s gonna be a monsoon in the next 15-20 mins so you might wanna find that yellow slicker!” GAH! FEH! BAH!
Anyway, a lot of my friends have been MIA lately. Not that I could hang out with them with this blasted cold, but still… WHERE ARE YOU? If they’re smart they’re stocking up on umbrellas. **SIGH** I need for this month to end. MAKE IT END.
