Misery, Basically

I hate to admit it, but I think I have a cold. I took Claritin and Advil Congestion Relief today, and neither of them have made me feel even close to 100%. I don't feel awful, but usually if it's just allergies, an allergy pill works, and I feel fine. I'm still totally stuffed up, runny nose, sneezing, post nasal drip, sinus pressure. Misery, basically. I don't have a fever or body chills like with a cold, but allergy meds not working seems to be pretty definitive that it's a cold. I hope it runs its course soon. I miss breathing out of my nose. You don't miss the simple shit until it's gone...

Tomorrow we're taking the kids to the Washington State fair! Snookums has successfully convinced them that they're missing school because they're going to the dentist. It's going to be so awesome seeing their reaction! We decided to go tomorrow because we're both off, and being retail working parents, we don't get weekends off like regular folk. So, the kids get to play hooky for one day and go to the fair. I'm excited for them. Even though I don't like rides, and I know there will be next to zero food options for me. It's about the kids, not me.

I've spent most of my day laying in bed, trying to feel normal. That means lots of Facebook and criminal drama tv shows. I'm not one who gets bored easily, but I'm over it. One day of that is enough. I'm going to bed now and crossing my fingers (and toes) that I wake up with WAY less congestion than I'm experiencing right now.
