woke up after midnight with a very sore throat. I think I may be getting sick again. dammit.
I very rarely got sick in SF, and this will be my third cold since we moved here. wtf. I guess my immune system was used to all the CA germs. But it’s like another planet up here.
Anyway, the party this afternoon will go on. If I really am getting sick, I know I won’t be hit with full force until tomorrow, and then I’ll probably have to take Monday off.
BUT I could get some of those zinc drugs that you’re supposed to take at the “first sign of a cold”, right?
I swear by zinc, that stuff I think really does help.
I also think its been a bad cold season for a while out here.
I swear by zinc, too, but I found it helped a hang over in the past. lol. I guess it’s good all ’round.
Airborne!! which is mostly Vitamin C zinc and some herbs, but the other thing which has helped immeasurably is irrigating the sinuses with buffered salt water, specifically NeilMed. You use distilled water (which you can warm in the microwave to body temp) and a packet of buffered salt/soda. I washes viruses, pollen, dust whatever from the upper respiratory track. http://www.neilmed.com/usa/index.php

And yesterday was a super duper success, I think!
