Death Warmed Up

For the last four months, I have been amazed that I haven't had a cold. Not even a sniffle. Back home, I would get colds all the time. But since I moved up here, sick people have come up to visit me, friends here have gotten sick, and I haven't been phased. Not even a sneeze. That is, until Sunday.
Now I have a tissue stuck up my right nostril and I've been inside the apartment all day. Since last night. I am pitiful. Behold, the arsenal of remedies that I have next to (and on) my bed.... sadly, they aren't helping much in the face of this super-cold that won't go away!


















Honey lemon cough drops, Vapor inhaler, sore throat spray, Airborne, Vitamin C, Vicks VaporRub, DayQuil, NyQuil and tissues. I also have ThroatCoat (the world's most amazing tea when you're sick). And I'm wishing I had 2 more things: ShowerSoothers, and Dole PineappleOrangeBanana Juice.
By the way, I could not have gotten sick at a worse time. It's the very, very end of the semester and I have a million school things to do.

Pretty sure the ATF has a profile on you now for a potential Meth Lab worker with all that cold medicine. Good gracious!
