On my day off, of course!

I have the flu. Either that, or a truly nasty cold, but I'm pretty sure at this point that it's the goddamned flu. Which my ever-loving sister has given to everyone in a ten-mile radius of her. Thanks, sis. My boss didn't need me this weekend, really!

I hate the incessant coughing, but what's REALLY hard to take is the muscle pain and weakness. Fuck, even all my JOINTS hurt. And naturally, anything that hurt BEFORE now hurts even WORSE, so my back and wrists are driving me nuts.

*pathetic sniffle*

*goes to curl up with tea and Doctor Who*

ow! motrin? tylenol pm?
oh! I've heard that Nyquil is good, if you're into that sort of thing.
*vegetarian chicken soup*

LOL, you're cute. You do realize that CHICKEN is the most important ingredient for reducing symptoms? (It's got anti-inflammatory properties, apparently.) Vegetarian chicken soup then, would be rather... Well, maybe not useless (warm liquid is always good!), but...lacking actual...chicken... Hmm, I wonder if certain veggies are better for colds than others?

Thank you for the suggestions, though. ALL of us are sick, so nobody is dragging their butt out for cold medicine, but we're all living on chicken noodle soup (which my mother luckily made a VAT of a few days ago) and hot black tea with honey.

And Doctor Who. Heh.

We probably have something like Tylenol PM around...

Oh lord. I hope it turns out to be just a nasty cold. I feel for you either way- being sick bites :(
