Four days later and you'd think that I'd be feeling somewhat better, or that my cold would've gotten better. Wrong! After losing my voice on Saturday, I still had a sore throat to deal with on Sunday, which later on turned into wheezy breathing, and hacking. Monday was pretty much the day of death, since I couldn't sit sit (my body ached), my head felt like it was going to explode, and I coughed up a few pieces of my lungs.
All that aside I finally managed to get the latest Harry Potter book yesterday and spent the whole day (3pm and after) reading it. I tried to stop, I really did, but I just did not want to go to sleep without finishing the book. So at 2am I ended up calling it quits and went to sleep. Not bad considering that I take maybe a few breaks that knocked off 2 hours there. All I have to say about the book is I will be ripping out the epilogue to blow my snotty nose on.
This entire week however, I am making it my duty to swim from 11:30-1pm. Not only will it just help me feel better by swimming some laps, but I'll get a decent tan. Monday was some pinkness on my chest, shoulders, face and back. Though my arms always take to the sun really well. They're a golden brown/tan right now, so I guess that's a start :P
I've been trying to stay up today, but I've felt so useless and exhausted that I have been sleeping on and off. I think I may have to cave in and actually take some medicine. I have this belief that unless I am absolutely dying and in the hospital, I do not take medicine other than aspirin. Who knows why, but it's been like that for a few years now.
*runs off to try to feel accomplished* Oh and day 2 of no Mark :( Only 4 more days to go.

4 years, 6 months agoMan, I feel for you. I have sore throats like Britney Spears has meltdowns. I have an uneven tan so my feet are white-ish, my legs are dark brown, my thighs are white, my stomach is white, and my neck up is brown. That's what I get for not going swimming in a long time...

I usually don't swim between 11am and 3pm because of the bad bad sun we have in Malta. I get a tan if I swim even at 5pm so.. :S

4 years, 6 months agoThat's a long time to swim. I bet your cold will feel better after getting exercise. I don't usually take cold medicine because it knocks me out, lol, making me feel worse. Good luck with it!

4 years, 6 months agoEh, you're not well, you need rest. Put down your book, go sleep. *shoos* Heh, glad you tan nicely, though. I turn grey when I tan... so I usually choose to stay out of the sun even though I really enjoy swimming. Ah well, indoor pools here I come.
