Whine whine bitch moan etc.

Got about 30 minutes of sleep before I woke myself up with coughing so violent I pulled something in my back. Since then I've been coughing so hard the cats are angry, and I haven't been able to get back to sleep because every time I lower myself into a horizontal position -- back, belly or side -- my lungs fill up with fluid that apparently needs to expel itself as uncomfortably as possible.

Also, my immune system is freaking out and I'm having a hell of an allergic reaction to nothing at all. Sigh.

I have some prescription anti-coughing tablets waiting for me at the pharmacy when they open in the morning, but that's doing me no good right now. Damn my lazy hide for not stirring from my sickbed and picking them up today. In the meantime, hopefully a horse dose of benadryl and sudafed will do the trick.

My right ear is full of fluid. It's driving me CRAZY. Aty least with a giant fistful of drugs I'm feeling vaguely human again for the first time in a couple of days.

OK. Cough tamed by some prescription pills. These things don't mess around. They are also, if the list of potential side effects is to belived, incredibly dangrous -- but if it lets me sleep tonight, I don't care.
