I'm exhausted.
All of this being-the-sister-of-an-engaged-person stuff really takes a lot out of a person, I'll have you know. Also, colds suck. Also, also? I do not appreciate coughing up a kidney or other internal organ in the middle of the night (or, frankly, in a meeting, at the supermarket, or at any other time). I am not entirely sure, but I don't think the people around me appreciate it much either. Oh, and in case you were wondering, sugar-free cough suppressant lozenges made by Robitussin, Ricola, CVS pharmacy, and anyone else you can think of DO NOT WORK.
On the up side, I am going to California in April for my sister's engagement party. Hopefully all (remaining) internal organs will be available to make the trip.

Posted by: wordgirl on February 26, 2007 11:19 AMOh no, it did NOT take me this long to come over and wish you better health. Sorry!! How's the cough now? Have you and your pancreas started to miss each other yet?
By the way, I strongly advocate using Sore Throat Lozenges instead of regular cough drops. They're 2 to 5 times stronger and they work a hell of a lot better.
