Sick.
Being sick sucks. I feel as if I've been hit by a truck. My neck aches, by back is throbbing and my shoulders are so tight I can feel the knots building up within them. My nose is all blocked up and insanely runny...the congestion is just too much to deal with. My ears won't stop popping...some hours I can hear from one and not the other, and in some magical twist of insanity, they switch positions. Swallowing and yawning don't help. If I tilt my head down or to the side, my ear drum hurts. Not aches. HURTS. I had a flu shot back in Nov/Dec, so I'm not convinced that's what I have. If this is "just a head cold" it's one helluva head cold and really knocking me off my rocker. So pardon me while I whine...but THIS SUCKS.
And on top of all this, as if it doesn't get any worse...I can feel my left top wisdom tooth cutting through the gum.
Brilliant.
So here I am...at 12:30 in the morning. Unable to sleep between my bouts of sneezing, wheezing and coughing...with Mike sleeping on the couch in the other room. No point in both of us getting sick, right? The bed just seems so vacant :(
...I just want to feel healthy and re-energized so I can start running and climbing stairs. The Hustle will be here before I know it!!! :sigh:

Wow...don't pass your germs this way. Hope you feel better soon girl! And you forget, i'll be in chi-town for Coldplay at the end of March!
From one Jayhawk to another, hope you feel better. (Were you in j-school? I'm wondering if we crossed paths there...)
One of my colleagues at work has bronchitis and I've been avoiding her like the plague. The crud is going around...get well soon!
Eewww, that does suck. GET BETTER SOON!
Chicago is a great marathon; you will like it!
Bummer. I know how you feel -- I had the plague before Christmas. Rest up!
It may be too late, but I had great luck with GNC's zinc tablets. I took these when I was sick last. Taking two a day really helped. Hope you feel better soon.
I hope you're feeling better by now!!! It sucks to be sick.
