In which I whine about my head cold.
May. 11th, 2011 02:24 amIt's not an Alaska Mutant Head Cold Of Doom anymore since I'm not in Alaska anymore, but it's got all the trappings, and this one is going slooooooooooowly. First it was just the sore throat for a couple of weeks, and now I've got the snots and the dry-nose (ya know, where one nostril is full of snot no matter how many times you blow your nose and the other is bone-dry to the point where it hurts to breathe through it?) and the stuffy head and...yeah. I had some ice cream earlier while trying to catch up on my flist (I'm still stuck in March :P) and now I'm drinking water and even the water isn't helping my throat. I wish I'd taken (LJ)autumn_mourning up on her offer of cough drops...or at least bought some of my own the last time we went to Wally World.
Seeing's how it's now Wednesday, I need to start packing for Florida. Plane leaves tomorrow afternoon and I'm still not sure how I'll get to the airport. If I were still at Wainwright, it'd just be a $20 taxi ride up Airport Way, but from Drum to the Syracuse airport is a freaking ninety-minute drive. I'm hoping a_m's husband will be able to drive me, but it depends on his work schedule (he's also military, though not a cook like Chris. Not my place to say anything else here without asking first, and it's 0230 at the moment.).
Oy. I may wind up having to take a Greyhound bus...though even that might need a taxi to the bus station.
Dammit, I wanted to save my money for stuff I'll need once I get there, like outfits for the rehearsal dinner and wedding! (The whole reason I'm going is that a cousin of mine is getting married. Otherwise I'd have waited until Chris had leave and we'd just drive there.)
I kind of wish I could just drive now, but it's too late since the tickets are already bought and all. And I need to go back to the library to print out my itinerary.
*clutches head*
I think I might chug some NyQuil and try to sleep.
Later, all. Sorry for the rare posting lately.
