The cold is full throttle now. I’m dying. I swear, if I have to blow my nose one more time, it’s going to fall off of my face, and I will forever be known as the Noseless Computer Girl of Seattle. I actually left work this morning around 10:00, and I never take sick days. This is only the 2nd time I’ve gone home sick & I’ve been working there for a year & a half — the other time was for a migraine that was so bad I was practically in tears. I took a lot more sick days at my last job, probably because I was living in Massachusetts at the time and I was sick constantly. That state & my immune system just don’t jive, which is one of the thousands of reasons I have no desire to ever set foot there again.

Anyway, I came home & took a 4-hour nap. Woke up, ate dinner, watched the new “Queer Eye” episode that I taped last night, and now it’s 7:00 and I’m about to hit the NyQuil and crawl back into bed. Ick.
