I've got the miserable kind of cold. Sneezing, runny nose, terrible headache, chills. I called in sick today. I'm thinking it's been at least 10-15 years since I've done that. It took me about 2 hours to convince myself I was sick enough to take off. I'm just that way. In my line of work, I have clients with appointments all day long. When I take off, there's no place else to fit them in. So, I'll be working my next day off. My sister from Ga is in for a visit next week, and I wanted to spend the day with her, but, that's the way it is. I hope to just work a half day. My boss encouraged me to see my doctor today in case I have a sinus infection. I went, but the doctor thinks it's an upper respiratory thing. She prescribed the antibiotic prescription of Z pack (sp?), and told me to take it tomorrow if I'm not feeling better. I also bought Claritin. I've already taken 3 Motrin, and they're just not doing anything.

Well, enough of the whining. I'm off to bed. With a cold pack on my forehead.
