Snot Face

I'm sick. It's yucky. Snot everywhere. I'm sure you loved reading that but there it is. Worst part is I can't call in sick at work since I'm really the only one working on my show.

It was really fun having swollen sinuses at an elevation of a mile high in the mountains this weekend. Not much sleep to be had when one can't breathe is there? Lack of sleep never expediates the healing process.

I was so desperate at work today I walked to CVS & bought nasal spray. Good news: I could NEVER be a cocaine addict since after snorting stupid medicine I thought I was going to die for about 2 hours due to the horrible pain. Bad news: I thought I was going to die for about 2 hours due to the horrible pain. That stuff's terrible! How can anyone use that crap? Let alone put anything else up there?! I'm hoping that the abundance of snot means this cold's on it's way out.

I'll close with an appropriate quote from Drop Dead Fred:

Fred: Morning. Who's for snot flicking?

Oh I'm feeling your pain. And I totally agree about nasal sprays. They are painful, and they've never helped me.

I'll pray for quick healing. My sickness lasted a week, it's just tapering off now.

Quoting Drop Dead Fred? Nice.

I will try this again. Sudafed. It is mild and effective. Get the PE kind because it won't make you jittery, unless you like to be a little jittery. Beware of the plague it is everywhere right now.
And don't worry, I am sure that the nickname snot nose will not stick...hahaha...get it...stick...
I'm going now.

Thanks for the Sudafed advice Kathy, but I'm allergic. You don't even wanna know what the reaction is. I wish it were just the jitters.
