Another Head Cold?!?!

Good Grief.

I just want to scream. But I am too busy blowing my nose and coughing to scream. How is it that I have another cold again?!

I just suffered through one of these not two months ago....I thought I was good to go until at least January.

Once again, I reflect on the common facts of the common cold:

• Cold medicine is a worthless investment.
  
• I ask everyone, all day long to feel my forehead to see if I have a fever.


• Anti-viral kleenex makes me feel less like I am infecting the whole world - when in fact the whole world runs from me like I am Typhoid Mary.


• After 5 days of kleenex use, my nose becomes red, dry and cracked - and no amount of mega moisturizer keeps it looking normal.


• I hate having a dry, red, cracked and crusty nose. (this is what I get for calling a certain someone Crusty. Sorry G)


• On top of a crusty nose, my fingers get all dry from the constant kleenex use. Or maybe it is combined with the constant hand washing in my effort to not spread the disease.


• I never have a good hair day when I have a cold. Is it because my eyes are so watery that I can't see myself in the mirror? It may also explain the haphazard application of make-up - I tend to look like Baby Jane when I have a cold.


• When I have a cold, I get so miserable that I start to wonder what healthy and normal feels like. I love to wallow in the "i am sick pity party"


• I can never remember to feed a cold, starve a fever or feed a fever, starve a cold ~ and it pisses me off because I assume it is feed a cold, but what is the point if you can't taste anything?


• Hearing everyone tell you to drink green tea and take echinacea is just annoying. Shut up and stick your opinion up your butt.
