still waiting After a second day in a row of consuming large amounts of orange juice, followed up by some liquid cold medicine and hours of sleep, I seem to have put an end to my cold. The more aggressive method worked and I'll keep it in my mind the next time that I feel myself getting sick, because being a space cadet for just two days is better than suffering for close to seven. Why it took me so long to catch on, I don't know except that I have never been that fond of taking medicine. Something about pills has always bothered me and the idea of my body being an oversized test tube is not a pleasant one for me. Now with my body back to normal, I should be able to enjoy my upcoming birthday rather than spending it on the couch in front of the television. Of course since I've been doing everything that I can to get better, I haven't had much time for anything else. Even my reading has stopped. About the only productive thing that I did was look out the window for the delivery guy who was supposed to bring my new computer system but never showed up. It wasn't until I got a tracking number that I found out it was sitting in southern Illinois for some reason. So I wait yet another day.
