Getting better and yet still behind

I got sick this past Monday night with a sort of head cold. I was all clogged up and dripping all over the place, Tuesday was a bad day. I got no work done and then went to class but all I wanted to do was to close my eyes and fall off my chair. But it seems I'm getting better at dealing with this annual appearance of sickness around this time of year.

Two years ago, it was worse. I had a very sore and burning throat with a fever and I had to go to this meeting in 90 degree weather(it was October o.O I know). When I got back to my baking car and got in, the heat was almost too much.

The year after that I decided to brave the waiting room at the hospital. I had to have been waiting for almost three hours for just a shot of penicillin in my upper thigh(not my ass ok!). After that things got better.

This time around I've learned of Zicam, this homeopathic remedy that works very well on me and my colds. I am currently past the worst of it, it lasting only one day. I still feel a bit stopped up, but not as bad and no pain or fever. Also I've found that a nasal wash is a good thing to clean out stuff in your nose. Its weird to push water up one nostril and have it come out the other one.

In other news, I think I've gotten a better understanding of our math project so no longer really worrying about not being able to finish it on time for the APS conference. As you can see to your lower right, there is my events calender, cool huh? But now I need to get back to work and finish my lab report before I forget and my classical and modern physics work, *Sigh*
