ILLNESS IS RUINING MY LIFE.

[apple_pathways]

More or less, that is. Well, not really...but I am seriously sick of being sick.

This cold or whatever it is is working totally backwards. My colds usually progress in a predictable linear fashion: sore throat, stuffy/runny nose, cough. This one started with cough, and is now working its way through "head full of snot" with the sore throat phase beginning tonight at work. Oh, and last night I had a coughing fit that lasted for about 20 minutes. My cat kept coming back to check and see if I was done so she could eat her food in peace.

Since I feel like a pile of sludge, I've made an extra effort to look nice at work, to distract everyone from the fact that I appear to be carrying The Plague. (Have you ever seen some dying of the Black Death in mascara? I don't think so!) "Never mind the horrific, hacking cough! My hair smells FANTASTIC!)

Whatevs.

Tomorrow I spend the entire day on campus and cap it all off with the Epic Three Hour Lecture of Suck. We should find out our grades from our second exam. I wonder what he'll do if a lot of people did poorly again. MAYBE THIS TIME HE WILL BUY EVERYONE A PONY!

So sad that you're still sick. :(

Thanks sweetie! I appreciate the sympathy; I am rather pathetic these days!

Aw, I hope you feel better soon :)

AND I HOPE YOU GET A PONY. YAY!

ALSO TO CLARIFY I MEANT I HOPE YOU GET A PONY BECAUSE PONIES ARE ADORABLE, NOT BECAUSE YOU ALL DID BADLY. I HOPE YOU DID GREAT!

Thanks, doll! I'm fairly sure I did fine on the exam. It's just that this class happens to be populated by hard-working morons, and the professor likes to coddle them.

Hmm...I wonder if the pony could sleep in my room... ;)

Ack, hope you feel better soon! Being sick and going to work/school = evil.

Thanks, babe. :)

Oh dear. D: Get well soon!
You should make yourself a bowl of herbal tee and inhale with a towel.
It helps me when I have a cold. (:

But hey, at least you are still fabulous!

[apple-pathways.livejournal.com]

Mmm, yes, tea! Tea is good. I am drinking lots of tea--and occasionally just hovering over it and inhaling, as you suggest. :)

Thanks for the well wishes!

::hugs from waaaay over here, to avoid catching cold::

Hope you get better soon, and do well on your exams as well!

Ah ha, yes: I shall keep my plague germs over here on this side of the Pacific, no worries. ;)

Crossing my fingers!
