Waiting for the kettle to boil

I've officially given in to being sick. I thought last night that I could tough it out and I went out for a bit to Weatherstone and Streets of London. I was feeling mostly OK but this morning when I woke up my throat was basically swollen shut. I feel like poo. I hit Safeway first thing this morning and stocked up on Theraflu, tissue, tea, and non-salty snack foods (carrots, celery and dip). I plan on spending the day on the couch watching movies although I have promised myself that if I'm still alive later on that I will drag my ass to a King Kong matinee.

I was up all night on the phone also which I'm sure didn't help my throat any. Today I don't think I've been able to say more than two words at a time barely above a whisper without cringing in pain.
