I'm sick. I've finally decided that this sore throat, constant coughing, and running nose have something to do with the fact that I have, in fact, been inflicted with some sort of contagion. I do believe they call this the "common" cold.
I'm trying to fall asleep, but I'm finding the process rather difficult. You see, I have taken the necessary drugs and vitamins to help soothe, if not forgive the trespasses of whatever little germ is inside my body, and I have a roll of toilet paper, and a waste basket in reach for my nose. I have a glass of water if I start to cough, and I can pretty much guarantee that I will. I am wearing sweatpants, thick, knee high socks, a t-shirt, and a hooded sweatshirt, with the hood over my head. I've added a giant blanket and a woolen blanket to the comforter that I am accustomed to sleeping under. I plan on sweating it out tonight. However, I don't know if I'll ever be able to sleep...I'm too uncomfortable. Sort of.
I get claustrophobic very easily. To be under covers with so great an assortment of clothings as I currently have upon my person is causing me to feel very claustrophobic. I just need to take a deep breath and close my eyes...
Except that, I can't fall asleep.
They tell me that warm milk helps. Too bad I'm lactose intollerant.
The only thing that helps me fall asleep is to rotate in a circle to some soft, quite music. That's right. I dance when I can't sleep. It's kind of nice. Very relaxing.
Either way, just writing about the act is making me sleepy. I think I'll try it. Sleeping, I mean.
Peace.
