Uh oh - I think I'm getting sick.
In the last hour or so, I've felt my throat changing - kind of constricty and also slightly painful - and (I know we're not supposed to talk bodily stuff, but I have to here) my nose mucous has changed consistency, and it's become more difficult to blow out.

Classic signs - at least for me - that a sickness is coming upon me.

1. Tell LynneSin that, apparently, "constricty" is now a word.
:thumbsdown:

5. Heroin and iced tea - wasn't that always Dr. Welby's prescription?

6. Nah, it was Steve Kiley who was always pushing the smack/Lipton combo.

4. Can you up your Vit C and zinc intake?
Some of the creeping crud is hanging on for months in some people. Really, after your shower and when the junk in your nasal passages has softened, blow your nose. Some people are getting sinus infections now, and those really suck. Also, stay warm and tea with honey and lemon is comforting.
