ACHOOOO!

I am hoping that yesterday and today are the worst days of my cold. I started getting a sore throat on Sunday and began feeling really ill on Thursday. Yesterday I was wrecked, but I went to work because it was my intern's last day. Because of President's Day, I have a long weekend; I am hoping I'll be better by Tuesday so I don't have to use sick time.

The worst part of having a cold, for me at least, is that I can't sleep. First of all, I'm all hepped up on Sudafed, which is a total upper. But it must stay in your system for hours! I last took some at 8 p.m. last night and I literally slept about three hours. Even now I'm not tired!

I just want to sleep through this misery. I feel like a giant ball of mucus; and that, ladies and gentlemen, is pretty nasty.
