sick

I have pretty much made it through almost an entire year without getting sick, and I was quite proud since literally everyone in my family got sick in the last month or two. And then Tuesday morning I woke up with a little rawness in my throat. Not so unusual, since I have really bad seasonal allergies. I figured if it turned in to an irritation by the end of the day it was just allergies. But by Tuesday night, the pain was getting worse. I took two doses of airborne, loaded up on cough drops with extra vitamin c, drank tons of orange juice. When I woke up Wednesday it got worse. Last night I had a hard time falling asleep because my head and throat hurt so bad, and we had no nyquil in the house. I woke up this morning with the pain in my throat gone, but a diminishing voice and now nasal congestion! The worst part is that I have a job interview at 3:00 pm that I have been looking forward to for a few months now, so it's the worst possible time to be sick!!! At any rate, I am up and making the most of it, bought some nyquil to knock myself out the minute I get home ... wish me luck.
