Whoops, it's actually [ hr ] . My bad.

Anyway, actual sads rather than annoyance: I was supposed to be over this cold by today so that I could do stuff. I'm not.
I was coughing through most of the night, slept in til midday and now I just feel miserable. Pretty sure it's still raining, too.
I hate my immune system.

ok this will do but i want it a matter of public record that i do this only because i have been pressured to i would still much prefer multiple posts

[Descan]

And no one else does.

Hate it!?
Rather hate what's hindering it :I
Thousands of cells die so you can live! :O
^{And that's how we generalize WBCs}
But seriously, get well soon :/ Strengthen your body. Hygiene. Hydration and Rest.

No. Multiple posts = no. It makes clutter and clogs up the thread especially when both posts are related. Even if they aren't, what's stopping you from putting them in one post if they're following each other?
It's rather easier to even make it coherent in one post. That's how it works here, and hence why modifying posts is...pretty easy.

Unless there's some reason on your side.

PPE:
...That, in a nutshell.
It's like adding too much triviality when it can all be put in one whole post.

Yeah, I know... but I used to be able to go through pretty much anything without getting sick.
I went a few years without getting sick once, actually. But then, all of a sudden I was getting sick again. These days I get sick really easily and it's incredibly annoying. Probably some deficiencies or something, I really don't pay much attention to my diet these days. It's annoying because I'd planned on doing stuff today.

Boil some water, put honey in, stir, drink.

Helps throats.

Helps throats.

Optional step: Add chamomile and/or ginger to heated water if it's just before bed.

There was a bit when my throat was really bad this year.

I didn't even bother with the water, I downed bottles of honey.

It was both a dreadful time....and a delicious time

There was a bit when my throat was really bad this year.

14 day cold? Nasty deep cough that was with it?
I had the same thing a while back. Best thing that I found for it was Kurig White Hot Chocolate with a Tim Horton's Pumpkin Spice Tea bag in it. Actually, that's just good period.

I'm mildly sad that I'm almost out of Pumpkin Spice Tea. Fortunately, autumn is coming soon and I can buy some more boxes.

[Yoink]

Ha, if I had any of the stuff mentioned I'd try it. Sadly, I don't.
I guess I could walk up to the shops, but I'm pretty sure it's still raining. Bah.

[Orange Wizard]

When I have a sore throat, I put a few tablespoons of salt in a glass of water and gargle with it. Works like a charm.

Honey is awesome, so it doesn't matter if it works.

Also the nurse offered me honey lemon, and I think that she's a professional.

You guys getting all bent out of shape because of a stupid cold thing. Coughs and sneezes aren't bad. What kinda dwarves are you?

Still feeling pretty down about Robin William's death. I didn't hear about it right off, and when I did the BBC was reporting his suicide. It just gutted me.

I've been watching Mr. Williams since his days playing Mork, on television. He was absolutely brilliant when it came to improvisational comedy, and when he and Jonathan Winters got together it was... He was just remarkable and I feel like something unique has been lost from this world. I never saw a performance of his that disappointed me, and I've seen a good many of his movies. Moscow on the Hudson, Fisher King, Dead Poet's Society, the voice of Genie in Disney's Alladin...I could go on. He was always, always good.

And he was a good guy, too. He dropped everything to go to the bedside of his school friend, Christopher Reeve, when Reeve had that fall that led to his being paralyzed.

I haven't really watched the news since then. As someone who has struggled with depression too, it was hard to have it claim Williams like that. Really, really hard.
