Sniffles

I like these cold, gray winter days. Days like these let you savor a bad mood and cough your heart out.” -Bill Watterson
Ahhh how true. On days like that, you can sit around and mope and complain. On days like that, you can lounge around and savor the headache and the cough and the sneeze that the beautiful, wonderful weather brought down on you. Isn't winter a wonderful thing??
Alright, so today's sunny out. But it's about 10 degrees out there!! HOW IS THAT OK?!?! I have one of those stupendous things called a "common cold." Common?? COMMON?!? Hey! I beg to differ. I'm pretty sure my head got stuffed with cotton during the night, my brain might be dripping slowly out of my nose and don't get me STARTED on the state of my throat! Sheesh! "Common." Obviously whoever came up with THAT nonsense was sitting up in a nice cozy lab in Hawaii! And thought "Well, in the winter, everyone up north starts getting a little sick...so let's call that a common cold. They're not that bad. Northerners are wusses." PSH. I'll tell you who's the wuss here...and it's not me.
Ahh, and there I go, savoring a bad mood and harboring resentment. Funny how getting locked up inside for 5 months can do that to you. Well, I'll go back to enjoying my now-cold tea.

May warm weather, sunny skies and common colds be with you.

Peace out,
I'm-Dying-Here!
