Winter Colds

Winter colds, they’re inevitable aren’t they? I felt it coming on. I tried to pump myself with over the counter products, water, OJ, but I got nabbed like a cheap, half price item at the Target clearance shelf! Before I knew it I was hacking up phlegm, blowing my nose until I couldn’t touch it any longer and I could no longer breathe, smell or taste anything worth living for….I hate winter colds.
They don’t just go away either, you have to pass them to co-workers who in turn pass them back. Everyone hacking, breathing, coughing all over each other in cubicles and touching things, it’s just a germ fest for all!
What is it, starve a fever, and feed a cold? What’s the point, you can’t taste anything. I’m not even hungry and I’m too tired to fix myself anything to eat anyway. I want someone to take care of me, but I’m so bitchy no one can stand to be around me long enough to be nice to me. AND it’s not like at my house things are going to get done while I’m sick. What is that about? You wake up from 2-3 days of sickness to find your house in this tornado zone, looking mess. It amazes me. Don’t worry; I’ll be better soon so it would be my joy to clean my entire house. Nothing would please me more!
I gotta tell ya, I’m getting ready to ask for a do over in this New Year. 2008 has not exactly rolled in my favor; it has basically rolled OVER my ass. Have you ever found yourself saying, “This is the first day of the rest of my life?” Well I have and I tried to say it on January 1st and I’ll be damn if I’m gonna have to say it again real soon to start fresh. What is up with that? Can you just keep saying it until what; you just believe it and things happen?
It’s also something like 70 degrees here today which just pissed me off. It’s winter so it should be cold, not spring weather. I’m all about cold weather when it should be cold. I want my mitten weather and my snow. I don’t want to wear t-shirts and shorts around my house in January. That is not normal. I need normal. I’m a freak. No wonder I’m sick. Give me zero temperatures, wind, snow, sleet! I want it all.
Oh well, I’ll just continue to blow my nose, lie in bed and feel sorry for myself. I’m sure my Prince Charming is right around the corner just about to come rescue me any moment. Yeah, I know…………….I’ve taken waaaaayy too much medicine at this point…..I’m getting quite fuzzy-headed at this point.
