Cold progressing fast

[cjsmith]

I'm past the eating-caltrops stage, past the brief "feeling half decent except my nose is a faucet" stage, and am now in the "there's a knife behind my sternum" stage. I don't think I've had things go this fast before.

Didn't sleep at all last night - had to keep getting up to blow my nose & take more Sudafed. Also, any time I breathed I needed to cough, and even the tiniest cough-like hint of motion reminded me of that knife behind my sternum. But man, is this cough ever productive. That stuff tastes truly nasty, by the way. I'd forgotten how nasty.

Also, when I try to talk I sound like a duck. I think today will be another stay in bed day.

I likely have a slight fever (hard to say, as I have no thermometer with me) but it's clearly not a high one.

The nasty stuff is dark yellow now. It was lighter this morning and at that time I couldn't really say whether it was more green or yellow, but it's definitely yellow now.

Thanks for the sanity check!
