Sickness Pondered

These are some random things I discovered while I was sick:

~Puff's Plus are softer than other tissues.
~Delsym is a magic elixir that soothes the savage cough.
~Sucrets suck (sorry, had to go for this one).
~Carmex soothes dry chapped lips.
~PJ's are the absolute best item in my wardrobe.
~There is no such thing as too much time in bed.
~When you sound like you're dying, people will not talk very long to you on the phone.
~Ice cold drinks and hot drinks both feel good on a sore throat.
~It is NOT possible to cough up a lung, even though it feel like it.
~Breathing is important, especially when you can't.
~There is more mucus in my body than I ever thought possible.
~Green tea is a good, soothing drink--served either hot or cold.
~Tylenol is absolutely necessary to survive the all over pain.
~I swallow a lot (you notice this more when it hurts to swallow)
~Vicks smells better than perfume.
~Nothing tastes good, not even chocolate.
~Coughing really scares my dog.
~There is absolutely nothing remotely good on late night/early morning television.
~The harder I cough, the more helpful my children are.
~Getting up to use the bathroom and coughing should both qualify as Olympic events.
~Dying suddenly seems like a real possibility.
