For the past month, I've gotten several colds. Each one is slightly different, and I haven't been able to shake any of them fully before the next one arrives.
This past week's one has been the worst. With the others, I've been able to function on Dayquil/Nyquil, staying medicated throughout and being able to cope. This time around, no go. I felt awful Thursday and went into the office anyway, thinking that I'd be fine by the time I got there, but it just got worse. I ended up driving home, and getting everything I'd need for a few days.
Since then, I've hunkered down, have done all I can to feel better - drugs, soups, plenty of liquids, and so on. I've caught up on watching my TiVo recordings, and now I'm restless. I'm ok tonight, and it'll be (hopefully) the first night I can get rest without medication. Of course, I'm saying this at 2AM.
This is the first year in maybe 5 where I didn't get a flu shot. I don't recall it being this bad in recent times. Hopefully, this'll be over soon.
