Anyone else catching a bad winter cold?
This damn cold is killing me, its why Ive been home from school three times this week, goddamnit I don't wanna fall behind, I had actually planned to go to school today but I had to walk in the cold and with my hair frozen, and me coughing like a madman, I decided to go home. It's really annoying. I don't like getting behind in classes sigh.

4. Me too, Tesla
If I didn't feel so crummy, I would enjoy the dizzy feeling. Dammit, I was already sick at Thanksgiving. Not Christmas too!!!

5. Big time cold
It's the worst I've had in many years..

It's been going on for about 16 days now. Started in my head.. Both ears were clogged and popping, then it moved to my chest. I've had a nasty hacking cough for about a week now. Thank gawd for Nyquil.

7. Yes, I'm recuperating.
Taking Zithromax as of yesterday, so it should clear up in no time.

11. I've had mine for over two weeks now
It just won't let go. Went to the doc to make sure it wasn't bronchitis or pneumonia - it's not. It's just a miserable cold that won't quit. :grr:

I'm sorry you're missing school - that's maddening, isn't it? I'm fortunate not to have to work until January. Hopefully, it will be gone by then!

12. Yes I have one too.. maybe its a computer virus
since we all have it. I blame Kleeb. He is always starting trouble. For those of you who missed it, he started a flame war in GD the other night.

15. I am in the middle of a really nasty allergy storm
in North Texas every year the pollen count goes through the roof from the mountain cedar blowing up from the Hill Country.

Fortunately the wind is now coming down from the North, so I will get a break for a few days.
