I've been cheering my immune system on for the past few days now, but it appears to have been to no avail. I've caught my mother's cold. I can only keep cheering on my immune system so it won't last overly long.

On that note, because I actually felt less than overwhelmingly miserable in there, I managed to spend 30 minutes in the shower and miss the bus. So I've got to drive, which means a really frigid (10 minutes on the low side) walk from the carpark to school. Must find jacket. I would wear my actual coat, but I've got no place to put it when I'm not wearing it, and it's annoying to carry around as it's way too big for me (as it was my dad's).

Idk what I'm doing medicine-wise about this thing. My mom said she got no actual fever with hers, which is badbadbad, because then I can't use my patented "no medicine until the fever is gone/has gone on too long" trick to shorten whatever disease. I'm getting that feeling behind my eyes that I've got one, but no actual perceptible raise in temperature. So I think it won't do me any good to stay off the drugs.

Hmm. Will ponder (really, will stick it out until it gets too bad and then load myself up).

I know that feeling! The one behind your eyes. For me it feels like they're going to melt. My back also feels tingly and sensitive and achy. And then there's the cold hands and feet thing, but everyone gets that.

Feel better soon bb! *inappropriate yet medicinal hugs*

YES. I don't think I generally get the back thing unless it's part of generalized painage from flu or some such, but my joints are always worse simply because of the extra inflammation.

And actually, idk if I get the cold hands/feet. I might and just am not remembering/associating what I felt with that wordage, but it invoked no sensory memories, which is interesting.

Feel better soon bb!

Thanks! I'm actually not as bad as I expected to be at this point *knocks on wood*, which is nice. I've been sort of staying at that low, idk-if-it's-enough-to take-medicine-but-it's-still-pretty-annoying kind of level. Of course, since tomorrow is Saturday, that's probably when it's going to kick in, LOL. *mainlines vitamin C*
