Captain Trips
« on: January 28, 2007, 10:58:53 PM »
I just got back from a ski trip in which I caught the plague that will wipe out all humanity. It starts with the sore thorat and is working it's way into my sinuses. Lots of work to do this week too, so the next few days should be an absolute ball.

To compound matters, Mrs. RC dislocated her shoulder during her stage combat class yesterday, so we'll be nurse-maiding each other.

Ow.  Get better soon.  And make sure her other shoulder stays in good health so her armpit's ready for that first awkward aren't-we-glad-we're-barely-recovered sex.

oh, and ZICAM.  The original zinc nose gel to prevent/lessen the common cold.  I think it's the only thing that saved me this go-around.

I'm suddenly exhausted by the armpit thing.

I've been exhausted by it, but every once in a while it's used cleverly.

Thanks for the ZICAM recommendation, fajwat. I'll give it a try.

Looks like RC got the same thing I had/have. Yeah: Zicam. You've got to take it very early on, though, for it to be really effective. Also, get store-brand chloraseptic and just spray your throat a few times any time it hurts.

I'm refusing medication for colds/flu this year.  Take time out to rest, no matter what, lots of fluids, lots of tea with honey, and there we go.  Just had a cold myself, but it floated right away after two or three bad days.

All this operating under the theory that we're doing far more damage with all the drugs and, probably, prolonging the cold.  When all we need is a three day weekend with our feet up.

And isn't it sad that we're living lives where we're not able to do that?

Let's see if I can make it through the season without breaking down.

It's 45 minutes into Monday and everyone at my office looks like they've been working for 3 solid weeks with no breaks.  Either everyone's under the weather or it's just too cold to be in a good mood.

My office is the same.  Now, we're all healthy.  I think it's just a Monday thing.

I had a terrible time waking up today.  I dreamed I had a girlfriend and that she was fucking all of my friends while telling me that she didn't want to have sex because it was too painful, but seeing nothing wrong with the fact that she had sex with other men because her star sign said she was a physical person and there was no way around it.
