My best friends for the past few days have been:
- Benadryl
- Robitussin
- Halls Menthol Cough Drops
- Box of tissues
They are listed in no particular order.
Today is the first day that I am actually feeling a bit better. It's the pits to be sick during this hot weather. It's just annoying. E got sick first and because it's a law of the universe, I suppose, I got sick after him.
Thanks E.Speaking of the universe, as far as keeping in contact with, you know, humans...as opposed to medicine....haha, I spoke to
Tammy the other day and my voice sounded weird. I think I was going through a Barry White period. I kind of
miss that voice. I should have recorded my voice. Ah well.
So there you have it. The reason why I have not updated this blog. Now, if you will excuse me, a little cup of Robitussin is waiting for me.

Oh no, I hope you feel better quick! Summer colds are the worst.
Awwww.....
Robitussin: one of God's gifts to mankind.
Welcome to my world. I need 15 pills everyday to function.
Anyway, I hope you get well soon!
@TheSecretLifeOfPandas - ::Doing the Tarzn yell:: Miel! Yes! That's what I've been told, but I'm too much of a wimp with honey for some reason. I like Winnie The Pooh though. I'll have to try it because although the voice has gotten better, I still sound kind of weird. Weird-er.
@MooncatBlue - The humidity makes being sick that much annoying. Sigh. And I don't like this weather to top it all off.
@VaultESL - Hahaha. I have drank little shots (I call them shots) of Robitussin since the onset, practically.
@purplepixiepoo - Thanks for your well wishes, but I don't think I ought to compare myself to your situation. 15 pills does sound daunting. This cold is temporary, I hope. Your situation sounds completely different and therefore, more serious.
@CarmenDeBizet - Wait wait wait, I dont want you worrying about me. Please? I mean, seriously, please do not worry about me. I'm used to taking 15 pills everyday and mostly are pain relievers and blood supplements because my pain tolerance is too low. So yeah, nothing serious.
@CarmenDeBizet - lol! drink that honey!!!
I'm a fan of classic pooh. He's soo cute!
I'm glad you're feeling a little better at least. This is the first time I visited your site, so I hope you don't mind a little sympathy from a stranger..hahaha. Hoping that Robitussin continues to work.
Que te sientas mejor muy pronto. Ginger is good for colds, too. Te me cuidas...
NO WONDER.
I have seriously, honestly, completely, MISSED YOU.
Get well soon, my dear friend. Praying for you and E!
The Tussin tastes like crap but it gets the job done...sometimes.
Hope you feel better soon.
@zionlover - No worries. Thank you for your visit. Robitussin is, indeed, a great liquid. The taste is another matter, lol.
@mom2basharndanny - E was thinking of making me a ginger tea, but we had none...and he likes to make it a lo natural you know...meaning the root as opposed to a tea envelope.
@mawmspage - Thank you for the soup. :) I slept a lot and that helps too. And drinking lots of liquids. I would have gone for Pho, but going to a Vietnamese place was out of the question since I had to be in bed, mostly.
@VersaGratis - Thanks Addy. It's nice to be back although it's the end of Summer and soon, school will start, gulp.
@fullmetalbunny - Oh FMB. I slept and slept and slept. Hours went by, I did not even know the time of day man. Seriously. And thanks for the Mini. Rest is the best medicine.
@swosei12 - Thanks Kwame. I felt like drinking the whole bottle, but that is not recommendable, tsk tsk.
Kidding, kidding.
