I'm sick, guys....
Sore throat, fever, horrible drainage, headache. I'm seriously considering taking a pill and sleeping the rest of the day. What do you think?

7. Yes... rest.
And chicken soup. And medicine. And someone to attend to your every need, too.

Hope you're feeling better soon!

8. Sinusitis
You need to clean out your sinuses with a good saline solution. Works for me!

9. You won't follow this advice, and you shouldn't anyway, but in your
case I'd go out and have a few beers. If you're going to feel like crap, let there be a reason.

This is how I actually handle feeling like hell, which is funny, since I rarely drink at all when I'm feeling good :)

10. Two Words: West Nile
But take heart -- most cases aren't fatal.

11. Poor thing! I also am home from work with nasty head cold --
sore throat, headache, drainage. I am having hot soup in a minute, and I have been drinking water all day, cuddled up and dozing in my blankey on the couch.

Yes, go ahead and take a long nap. It will make you feel much better.

13. Sleep is a very good thing.
Better to wake up later feeling a bit better than to have every minute feel like an hour.
