(no subject)

I'm SICK. It doesn't feel bronchial so I don't think it's SARS, no spots except the ringworm so it ain't smallpox, and no envelopes full of powder, so probably not anthrax.

Still, I haven't felt this crappy since I had mono in college. EVERYTHING hurts. I'll take recommendations for folk remedies, as well as endorsements for commercial flu-fighting products. It feels more fluish than coldish. And I can't find my PHONE.

sweetness, I'll bring you a folk remedy of kisses and pity and anything else your little heart desires soon as I can.

just ask, I'll go shopping any minute and bring it later.

also I'll find your phone. It can't be far.

pity pity pity!
love me xoxo

A hot steamy shower if you're stuffy (clears things out), warm salt water gargle if your throat is sore or scratchy (tastes like hell but works), lots of liquids, and lost of rest.

Feel better soon!

Ibuprofin. 4 tablets every 4 hours. Get the fever right the hell down.

Other remedies require the question of what your symptoms are. Token tends to bring me orange juice and blocks of cheese at such times; I don't know why this is but both are orange so possibly you should surround yourself with orange things and consume orange products. Not Doritos, however, because that never goes well.

Bundle up, drink soda (flat 7-Up always pleases me at times like this), sleep as much as possible. And ibuprofin. Also put on some M*A*S*H, because Hawkeye and Trapper John are comforting to sick folks.

The horror!

You're still sick!
This is very bad. Tea. Tea. Tea. With honey.
You should have Jason make you some. And there's cranberry-orange bread.
Feel free to feel bad for yourself too. Totally allowed.
Watch lots of TV if you can't sleep (as if you don't know that!)

Do you want me to bring anything home? I was thinking that we should all watch Blue Velvet at some point.

You lost your phone. AGAIN? I'm going to have it surgically implanted.

Many sloppy kisses and rib-cracking hugs. Feel better soon.

You know, your little icons do really amusing things when you're sick. Not that this means I'd like, wish for you to be sick or anything. I'm just saying.

mono sucks!

so I hope it's not mono, man.

Feel better double quick.
