Flow, Clog and Reflex...

Posted June 8, 2000 10:39 AM.

I have contracted one of those unpleasantly dehabilitating cold virus things that makes your nose fill with sticky stretchy green goo that means that you have to sleep on your back so that it "flows" down rather than clogging up your nostrils and making it hard to breathe. Which results in the side effect of a body that acts as if it has just discovered the cough reflex and is really quite proud of it. Which results in a throat that closely resembles ground beef with salt rubbed into it.

Or at least I think it would, if I could stop shivering enough to tell... I've taken the day off work so that I don't spread it to all my colleagues, and feel gross and annoy people. I'm sure that it's the right thing to do, but I'm bored already [10.38am].
