Colds

Post by Fat Strat »

We just keep passing the same cold around the office. Everyone in our office has been sick this week. I'm so medicated that I can't think straight.

I haven't had a cold in probably 5 years.

I've been under the weather for a couple of weeks, but I think that it's more likely a sinus infection than a cold.

I went through it first thing in the new year. If I took another dose of NyQuil, I was going to have to go to a NarcAnon meeting.

I've been sick for over a week now, and at this point it's just getting old. First it was a sore throat for a day, then I completely lost my voice, then my whole body ached for a few days, then I couldn't stop coughing, and now I've just got a runny nose and lots of sneezing (and a little bit of coughing).

I'm usually better by now, but this one's hanging around for a while. I approve this rant.

This is going to sound weird, but I don't ever get sick. I haven't had a cold/flu type deal that lasted more than 1 day in forever. I was sick one day 4 years ago and threw up, I think that was the most recent. The last time I went to the doctor because I was was "sick" was 19 years ago when I was 6.

How much sleep do you get ICE? I probably sleep more than the average person, and I really think that's why I've been so lucky in not getting sick.

I've been sick for almost three weeks. Spent probably $100 on every cold medicine I can find and none of it seems to work.

I haven't had a cold since I quit smoking - was that 3 years ago?
