Ugh. I hate colds.

So earlier today I noticed I kind of had a deep kind of cough, and I feared I that had somehow caught a cold. Unfortunately, my fears were confirmed. I felt the cold creeping up on me throughout the entire day. And now, I'm laying in bed, shivering and coughing like a mother****er. I had party plans this weekend, but now it looks like I'm gonna have to scratch that. Probably just gonna stay in my dorm all weekend. I need find some way to get some cold medicine tomorrow, before it decides to get any worse.

Good night, everyone.
 
Being sick on the weekend sucks. My old college roommate used to tell the same tasteless joke all the time and I am going to do it now.

Q: What's worse than being sick on a weekend?


A: The Holocaust.


Seriously,all the time. What's worse than a paper cut? What's worse than a girl giving you a wrong number? And I kept falling for it.

Get well soon.

Push fluids and sleep; Hope you feel better soon.
 
You should feed a cold. Eat till youre stuffed. Then eat again. Get well soon.
 
That sucks. Personally, I find that deliberately infecting friends and family is a good way to relieve my own frustration over illnesses.
 
Risky Prediction #478: In three more posts apdst will offer to drive down and give you a chest rub.

Be well.

Sure, there are new germs there that your body does not known, and you have been abnormally a social butterfly....you got to take the good with the bad.

Take care of yourself.

Like a Whopper with cheese i enjoy a good harsh cold once in a long while. You feel so bad, it must be good for you. A little carthesis in wild life.
 
So I woke up like 30 minutes ago, and I still feel like absolute ****. I can't stop coughing for the life of me. The Dining hall doesn't open until 10 so still have about 2 hours to be miserable in my bed.

Hang in there, little lady. Could you maybe get to a vending machine and perhaps get a chocolate bar and a gatorade or orange juice?

You might consider a shower for the lungs, Tylenol for any fever,aches and pains, and a cough suppressant if the cough does not abate by evening; it will at least allow you to rest a bit through the night. And fluids, fluids, fluids.

if I didn't mention it....fluids.

I went down and bought myself a soda and a granola bar from the vending machines downstairs. I would love to have gotten orange juice, but the convenience store is wayyy on the other side of campus, and they aren't open on weekends.

I really need to re-stock on food in my dorm.

I did take a hot shower. And I'm planning on getting medicine from Walgreens later today.
