Looks like I've come down with a head cold. Yesterday I started having sneezing fits, and today I've had to stop every couple of minutes to blow my nose. I also woke up with a slight sore throat this morning, not enough to be painful but just enough to make me worry that this is going to turn into my regular chest cold (in other words, three days of sore throat followed by a week of wet cough followed by a week or two of dry hacking). I don't need this right now, it's the end of the month which means that work is insane plus I have projects to work on (I have a quarterly newsletter to put out by Friday, not to mention my other monthly projects). Also I have theatre tickets for next Thursday (I'm going to see
"An Enemy of the People" at the Lansburgh Theatre) so I really hope that I'm not coughing up a lung when that comes around because the tickets are non-refundable and even if I did only pay $12.50 a pop for them I don't want to waste the money. Hopefully this will remain only in my head and it'll pass in a few days, and then I can go back to my regular life of going crazy at work, losing my soul to the cruelty of the big city, and sweating to death at home.
