Not feeling so great.

Allergies are kicking my ass right now. My head is very fuzzy. I’m really tired. I haven’t been sleeping well because I’m coughing all night long. My face feels swollen and miserable.
And I really fucking hate it when I cough and need to run to the bathroom in order to spit out nasty gobs of green mass. Extremely unpleasant.

I want my body back. 🙁

          and, um, I can’t remember the rest either.

    OK, I can’t believe I’m doing this, but …

    Drink copious amounts of water. You’re still probably of an age where taking Tylenol (rather than aspirin or NS-aids) for fever/aches is advisable. Buy and take a really good expectorant. Gargle with warm salty water. Avoid the antihistamines as much as possible – though I know that’s hard to do when it’s the histamine response to an allergen that started all this. They can sometimes dry things up in a *bad* way. You want to keep the cough productive whenever you have the nasty gunky stuff happening. And you really *don’t* want to have to deal with an infection that gets embedded deeply into the sinus tissues. Been there, done that.

    As a major touch-junkie, I also prescribe mega-doses of hugs.
    (((((((hugs))))))))
    There’s your first dosage. Repeat administration frequently.

    Are you sure it’s allergies and not sick? The green gook sounds a little suspicious. I’m trying to figure out what’s wrong with me – I’m feeling like ass. Exhausted, bleary headed, sore throat, headache, moderately warm – almost feverish. I’m generally not heavily prone to allergies, but people are having a really hard time with them right now – the heat has everything blooming.
