I made an MTV logo... Wanna see?

I finally broke down this morning and went back to the doctor. I left with a Rx for a combination antihistamine/decongestant. Whoop-dee-doo, I thought. I've been taking that stuff over the counter all week with no improvement.

Oh, I was wrong... This magic white pill... Where do I begin?? I took the first dose at one, and then laid down for a nap (doctor's orders - fluids and rest, fluids and rest). I woke up around 3:30 and my first thought was... Hey, I can BREATHE!!! Then I got out of bed and immediately coughed up the first wad of phlegm. It was a doozey.

Now, you may not want to hear about my snot, but damn it - I'm gonna blog about it. Because it's been sitting in my sinus cavities for over a week and I was happy to see it OUT OF MY BRAIN. I have spent the past few hours hacking up loogies like a seventy year old man. It's fabulous. The magic white pill took a chisel to the snot rocks resting in my skull and the wall's a-tumbling down.

My husband doesn't see the beauty of this whole process and told me it was, in fact, NOT sexy to call him in to see what I coughed up in the sink. I told him the level of snot in my head is directly proportional to my level of bitchiness, so he'd better appreciate what's happening here.
