Couch 92 Found my shoe

Good point. Although in my head I imagine them getting other people to contact you and be like, "WHAT DID I DO?!" and then I'd have to block them and then... it would be an endless cycle of ignoring.

That's probably unrealistic though.

Okay - bad plan to have afternoon coffee. I can still feel my pulse racing.

I can someone making a big deal about it on a different thread.

My cough wont stop coughing but there isnt really anything left to cough. I might be back to normal by tomorrow!! Shortest cold ever! Sadly, no record breaking boogies

You and your boogies! My cough is still coughing without much left to cough too. As far as boogies - do dayglo green ones count as record breaking?

is the couch sick too?? I was home sick--can't tell if I'm heading towards bronchitis or a sinus infection or maybe both?

Mine acted like I was heading for bronchitis at first, now it's all in my head, and I think I likely have a sinus infection. Blech!!

I found this interesting.
Doctors bully nurses: Hospital mistreatment is a danger to patient health.

Need a good fiction recommendation. I like quirky, but open to any ideas.

Gospel Hour by TR Pearson (I laughed out loud)
Dear Committee Members by Julie Schumacher (I laughed out loud)
Pompey by Robert Harris (I like historical novels)

These look great! I'm looking forward to adding these to my to-read list.

The last historical novel was fiction, but I enjoyed it. "The Secret River" isn't new, but I stumbled on it somewhere. Based on the settling of Australia and the overlooking/ignoring the fact that it was already populated by Aboriginal people.

Must have been a glitch. I just tested it with someone who enjoys me as much as I enjoy her. I got the blocked message.

i kept my windows open last night and now I have a lovely layer of pollen everywhere.

I took an ambien last night so i slept thru the night but ive been coughing for the past 2 or 3 hours. I keep - uh oh now i cant think of the word - maybe thats enough cough syrup!! Guzzling! I was thinking snuggling.

One could snuggle a bottle of cough syrup, I suppose! Lol

I feel like snuggling a bottle of cough syrup.

I've snuggle a bottle of cough syrup once, however sleep didn't come until after the snuggle wore off. Codeine keeps me awake, who knew?

Codeine is awful for me - it makes me feel like I can actually feel my hair growing and I get extremely edgy and cranky until it finally knocks me out. I really really dislike most meds and find the side effects, for me, outweigh the benefits.

I called my drs office for an appt but hes going on vac so i might just get a call back. I slept all afternoon. Im just a cough machine

I hate this not being able to evaluate how i feel. Or maybe its that i DO know how i feel - cruddy - and i dont like not being able to change it. I hardly even have any appetite - that means im REALLY sick!

Eta - yay, my dr called back! I have power again .

I thought you were getting better. Sorry you still have it - it has been taking 10 days to 2 weeks for all the people I know.
I don't use mds/medical establishment people for this sort of thing unless it turns into a sinus infection and after 2-3 weeks I decide to go for antibiotics. Usually it will eventually, for me, clear up on its own.

Reading this random book I found online about NPD. It's making me just cry and cry. I gave 15 years of my life to that... Might as well have thrown myself into a black hole.

I would need more information about how these people feel and function during these two weeks they are sick. I would also need a robot butler

Or a robot maid like Rosie from the Jetsons?? By the way, the Jetsons took place in 2062 (says Google) so sadly I guess we aren't quite there yet.

That makes sense! That would have had it one hundred years into the future. A little past my prime cartoon watching years - i was ten

Which book?

I still want to get back to 1968.
