sick sucks

yes, i mean being sick sucks... runny nose continues, but the medications that dry up a runny nose suck even more... especially when tomorrow involved waking early to sit in a room listening to orientation lectures for eight hours... headache now, and pain medications suck too... drugs suck in general... but headache, mostly sinus headache, is keeping me awake now after i was able to fall asleep earlier around 6pm... headache is likely the reaction to stopping the cold lozenge medication i was sucking on all day so i could sit quietly without sniffling, sneezing, coughing, or otherwise being distracted or distracting with the headcold symptoms... the runny nose would stop if i stopped forcing fluids, but forcing fluids is supposed to be done when fighting a cold... so i am addressing the suckage here in the sort of whining complaining sucky blog entry... maybe i will give in and take an aspirin, though that could raise blood pressure, cause other complication (kidney, liver, heart, etc), and ultimately increase the headache...
