    Rough Day

    My cold has moved from Post Nasal Drip to Nasal Drip. This is good, it's progress. But my poor nose.. tissues are rough on it, even the ones that are supposed to be gentle.

    Thom decided we were switching to decaf coffee this week. I've had the worst headache all day. I drink coffee because I like it and the decaf tasted fine. But that headache... I've had two Red Bulls since I got home. The headache is somewhat ameliorated.

    I decided to take some liquid cold medicine. We have two kinds in the medicine cabinet. The lid on the kind I chose hadn't been put back on correctly. There were ants in it!

    Thom has a dinner thing to go tonight, so he'll be home late. How soon can I go to bed?

    Go get some Nyquil and go to bed now. Of course now that you've caved and had the red bulls it may take something more serious than nyquil to counteract that...

    Last week or the week before, I had a head cold so painful my teeth hurt. Sounds like you have it now - and combining that with going off real coffee sounds crazy. Get over the cold and go off coffee next week. Or re-think that silliness and stay addicted with the rest of us.

    Ah V, your day is bad. Going off caffeine with a cold, that is brutal. Take some NyQuil and go directly to bed. Feel better soon.

    I've never noticed caffeine keeping me awake. Tomorrow's coffee will have some pep since I'm prepping it tonight. NyQuil was the stuff the ants didn't get. It's already making my nose less runny. Yippee!

    Caffeine does not keep me awake either. Now go to bed. Sweet dreams.
