Sick

I think I get sick seasonally. This time, it ruined one of the last sunny weekends of the year for me. Symptoms: My head feels like it's going to explode. That's it. Every move makes it throb horribly. Saturday morning, I actually blew my nose a little bit, but since then the old sinuses have stopped helping the situation and I've just been sleeping. I slept almost the whole weekend away and it's really not hard to fall asleep when I'm in this much pain. The doctor gave me a note for work, an antibiotic and Tylenol 3 with codeine. I actually took one of the Tylenols, even though I had planned to not take any. This is reason number 1 why I might end up capitalizing on my note out of work. Something tells me that opiates and market analysis may not mix. Ugh. I can't believe I lost this weekend. I even missed the taxpayers last night at Brainstains.

You need Pho.

Heh, Brainstains, that's fucking brilliant.

Pho....and a Neti Pot.

They really work - I use one daily when my allergies act up (winter cedar pollen here).

Oh yeah, my mom did the sinus irrigation thing and she always swore by it. I don't know, I've tried it before and it was a horrible experience. I think I'd need someone to give me guidance next time, because all I remember is having salty water run down my throat and burn me and nothing getting into my sinuses.
