SORE THROAT!!!

Holy Crap body!!! So like two weeks ago, I became horribly ill and sickly with the worlds most awful cold ever. It began with losing my voice, then continued to a horrible sore throat, a mild (and short lasting) fever, sinus pressure, a runny nose... I felt awful... but thankfully as a week past I began to feel better. I had energy. Sure, my nose was a little runny still and I had a horrible hacking cough, but I was feeling better and better. And now, a week after that, my nose barely runs and I don't think I've coughed in two days. YAY!!! I'm healing!!!

Or at least I thought I was... but I seem to have a nagging sore throat. First it got better, and I couldn't feel it. Then I coughed a whole bunch over almost a week and it was a little raw. So I thought that it would get better as my coughing decreased. But it hasn't... I'm starting to think that it's getting worse. It's getting harder to swollow... yawning is uncomfortable. Other than that I feel fine. I have energy. I can sing (no scratchy voice loosing thingy). There is no sinus pressure. I'm pretty sure I don't have a fever. But this sore throat is AWFUL!!! So I have come to a conclusion... if my sore throat continues to get worse, and I do not see improvements I'm going to suck it up and go see a doctor next week. Lets hope for the sake of my pocketbook (heehee that sounds so old fashioned) that it improves soon and quickly.... I want to feel normal again.

I may need an intervention...

It's 12:25 and I have to be up in less than five hours for work. Instead, here I am, updating my blog, which no one reads except my fiance and one of my best friends. I think I'm going to need a lot of caffeine tomorrow. Good thing the staff room has free unlimited sludge (it only thinks it's coffee) and that I bought a case of Throwback Mountain Dew (which will make for an excellent mid afternoon pick me up).
