Ack! The perpetual cold that just won't leave.

I think it will be four weeks on Monday that I have had this thing. The last two weeks mostly just a persistent cough.

Now, chills and fever all over again. I probably picked up a different rhinovirus or adenovirus on top of the first one.

Joy. Might be a good time for people to buy stock in Kimberly Clark Corp, I singlehandedly am making Kleenex a top seller.
