I am tired of being sick

There has been a bug going around campus for a while now. Our whole house managed to avoid it up until two weeks ago when Meesh caught it. I manage to stay well for a week but then got hit with it Tuesday morning.

It's a real frustrating illness since it is not extreme enough to cause major discomfort, but I have been at the same low-level discomfort since I got it: slightly agitated throat, tired, and my sinuses refuse to drain either out my nose or into my throat but to just sit there. Yuck. Really sucks I can't just blow my nose to clear my sinuses.

Luckily I am on the mend. Lots of forced lounging around the house is doing it. I am getting stir-crazy, though (as is Meesh, I think). Hopefully I can get over this soon as I was hoping to go visit my dad next weekend, but I won't if I am not over this.

We've got the same sickness in our home right now, 1200-1300 miles south of you, acquired some time last week. Cursed microbes.

At this point I am basically over it. I have a cough, but at this point I think it is allergy-related. But it sure did take its sweet time to go away.
