My Nose is Chapped. Ow.

You know how for every cold and flu, there's always that one day where you don't think you could possibly feel worse? When you wake up at 4 am, because your eyes are all hot and sore, and your nose and throat feel like they're sunburned?

That was today.

Since noon, I've used half a box of kleenex (I know because I opened that box at noon), drank 5 pots of tea (in an effort to shake this stupid cold), and coughed enough to make that guy with tuberculosis at the back of the class cringe and put on his SARS mask.

Goal for tonight? Sleep. I plan on putting a damp facecloth in my room to promote air humidity, and maybe using an extra pillow so that I can breathe more easily. If that doesn't work, I'm bringing on the drugs.
