I am not even joking. I’ve got a running nose that sometimes feels stuck even though I blow it all the time. I’ve also got a bad cough, sore throat, watery eyes, sneeze marathons, and have taken more Advil for headaches in the past few days than I have in all my life!!! And no, I’m NOT exaggerating!!

I even called in sick on Wednesday from my job because I felt like complete crap in the morning. That day I slept well into the afternoon. Even now, a few days later, I still have the stupid cold but have been going to work regardless. After all, I can’t be missing a shit load of days from my new job. No thanks…I don’t want to put that into jeopardy.

I work again tomorrow but hopefully I’ll get a chance to swing by Wal-Mart in the morning so I can check out the cold medications they have. I usually get Sudafed which has ALWAYS worked in getting my colds to go away. Julie also suggested Nyquil which I can honestly say, I’ve never tried.

I’m not a huge pill popper or medication taker. In fact, I prefer to have my body heal itself from any sickness the natural way. So when I said I’ve taken more Advil in the past few days…it really was the honest truth. I’ve probably going taken Advil once or twice in all my 22 years of living. I know…unbelievable. LOL!! Sudafed I have taken once or twice every year when I get really bad colds such as this. That’s the one thing I know that will always work to get rid of it that fast way. Plus, I’ve never had any side affects from it either. So that’s a plus!! LOL!

Anyways, I’m heading to bed so I can finish reading this amazing book called Yakuza Moon by Shoko Tendo which I think is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! I can’t put this book down at all because it’s really interesting. Then again, I absolutely love the Japanese culture, so I’d read anything related to it. I’ve read some great books in my lifetime, and this is definitely one of them. I’ll probably have a review of it once I’m done on my other site Fading Away In Life.

Toodles for now and btw, Happy Valentine’s Day even though I’m a day late.

    I hope you’re feeling better real soon. I’m like you. I don’t like taking too much medication and prefer to let my body fight it off.

    As a person who gets a major cold twice a year (spring and fall), I can honestly tell you that Nyquil does work wonders. I don’t buy anything else.

    Hope your feeling better soon.
