ACHOO!

Thirteen Things That Stink About Being Sick 1.It's the one instance when chocolate does not make you feel better. 2.The fact that your world is suddenly wrapped in a foggy shrinking bubble filled with white noise and one tinny neverending whistle. 3. The issue of tissue. If you buy generic you will wind up with a scab the size of Utah where your nose used to be. However those lotion filled fancy hankies have their own special and slightly oily quirks. 4.The Pea-as in the old Fairytale The Princess and The-? No position, no location, no downy soft pillow or egyptian cotton sheet is comfortable enough to suit your aching limbs. 5. The weird cure alls you're willing to try after Dayquil and Flu-Be-Gone arent doing it. Onion and mustard neck wraps, Cayenne tea, nasal irrigation {that's always fun} 6.{Warning-icky ahead} Throwing any ladylike class or elegance out the window. There will be mucus. It wont be pretty. You will look like a plague-ridden character from Stephen King's The Stand, you may sound like a wounded bear. This is not a sexy time. 7. Lack of concentration. You could play a computer game, watch a lot of tv, and nap. But if you need to write or concentrate, or do anything that requires more than groggy slightly nonsensical conversation-you are out of luck. 8.Being a grown up. Being sick is just not as satisfying now that I'm an adult. I mean-no one likes to be sick but I remember being pampered. I got to stay home from school, propped up on the couch while people fed me soup and patted my head and let me watch anything I wanted. My hubby does spoil me and no one is a better caretaker-but I am different. I have things to do-errands, plans, WRITING. I dont have the luxury or time to thoroughly enjoy it :} 9.The fact that I have to stop at 9 because I'm too tired to write out the rest of the reasons being sick stinks. LOL {cough}.
