Now I'm not one to come down with anything very often. The occasional cough that usually doesn't slow me down or prevent me from going to school is about the extent of it. Not anymore, I'm sitting at my computer right now without the ability to swallow without a stinging pain gripping my throat and head. On top of that, there are little cold sores under my tongue that bug me even more than my throat. This "sickness" is by far one of the most annoying things that I've ever had. I'm too bad to go to school, but not too bad to just sit in my bed all day long. Yes, this would normally be a good thing, because it should just be like a vacation day, but it's not, because I still feel like shit. Sprite is my only true friend right now. I'm told that this "functional" illness is going around, so for those of you that have experienced it, you know how I feel. When I speak, I sound like Barry White under water.
There is one upside besides not being at school, and Professer Number, please don't shit yourself about this. I'm taking Coricidin, but as instructed, for my illness. It clears up my nose damn well, and I'm blessed with a very 60's esque medicine head trip. I've been rocking out to Coldplay and the Doors with the lights turned really low all day. All while watching the bubbles in my bottle of Sprite rise up the inside walls of the bottle. Fun stuff, but nonetheless, Sickness Sucks.
