Miserable Sick

It is the only way to describe how I have been feeling for the last couple of days. I woke up yesterday with a sore throat, head and ear ache and runny nose. I maintained until around 6 PM when it decided to explode into a fever, chills, sneezing, nausea, migraine monstrosity. Which I was trying somewhat vainly to keep in check with Ziacam, ibuprofen, and chicken soup (my second batch this week, as Caleb was feeling under the weather earlier) I went to bed at 8:30, and woke up several times, too hot, too cold, too sweaty, etc, until I woke up at 1 AM after my fever finally broke, and apparently the Ziacam/ibuprofen/sudafed concoction took final effect. I felt much better, and had one usable nostril, so I was able to sleep the rest of the night without drooling on myself. That being said, today I do feel better, but in that kinda hazy sinus congestion and mouth breathing kind of way. And since I cannot afford to miss work, I am at my desk trying somewhat vainly to not look like warmed over death and be legible over the phone. Luckily it is kinda slow today. I am just so tired...

In some less morbid and depressing news, I have started a new line of pins and clips for my etsy site. They will be posted hopefully this weekend, I had to take film pictures of them, since my digital camera is not an SLR, so after they are developed I will post them. and this is the last week for free shipping! So get your orders in by Saturday!

Last thought, I have discovered tiny star pasta at publix and it is the PERFECT addition to chicken soup. It may also be my new favorite thing.
