I'm getting a cold and it sucks. Hugs needed!

[bigwillq]

Plus to make it worse, I'm at work until about 11 p.m. or so.

It's also one of my friends b-day and I'm suppose to meet them out at the bar later.


I'll probably go just to see him. I have off Sunday and Monday so I might as well just suck it up, go out tonight and then rest the next two days.


Thanks for listening!

1. Here's hoping you don't get whatever I have....

:hug:

[bigwillq]

2. Thanks for the hug!

right back at ya! :hug:


What do you have?

[Misunderestimator]

9. Not sure... was worried I was getting the flu cause I was lethargic

and achy and sneezy... but mainly I've been coughing a lot... not sure what I have, I don't feel too bad right now.

[bigwillq]

12. Hope you feel better!

I think I just have a head cold. I'm hoping it'll be gone in a few days.

24. Sounds like me and my hubby

We've both been sick for a couple of weeks now - it eases up then gets worse again. He went to the doc yesterday who told him he has bronchitis. I don't know if I do as well or if it's just a lousy cold.

Hope you feel better. And I hope I feel better too! Oh, and hugs for the OP :hug:

[bigwillq]

25. Hope the two of you feel better soon!

3. If you can, eat spicy food

My favorite cold preventative is to go to my neighborhood Vietnamese restaurant and order a soup they call "Delta bowl." The broth is made with red pepper, lemongrass, tomato, and pineapple, and it's not only delicious but a miracle drug for sinus headaches.

4. I might have to try that later

I brought in chicken wings and fries to have for dinner at work!

5. Healing powers can be found in the wings of chickens

If you can make yourself some chicken soup by boiling down some chicken wings for the base. Trust me my wife turned me on to that and it works like a dream.

ON EDIT-Wings not WIGS

[bigwillq]

I'm having chicken wings and fries for dinner

here at work.

Will that help?

[n2mark]

6. Stay in bed

Sunday and Monday and take plenty of vitamins especially Vit C, and zinc lozenges.

[bigwillq]

8. I always take a Centrum everyday

And today I took an extra Vit C.

7. Suck it up, ya big whiner..........

OK, I was just kidding.

Take Tylenol, quick. Lots of water, but not cold. Cough on someone you don't like. Spend time spitting in that person's Diet Coke. It won't help your cold, but you'll feel better.

Eat pizza. It's good for you when you're sick.

Take Nyquil. It's such a great buzz, I, an aging hippie, cannot believe it's legal.

If you don't have one, get a small vaporizer for your bedroom. That'll help keep your head clear.

Make sure you stay warm and bundled up.

Now I feel like I'm talking to one of my kids.

Yes, go out tonight and have fun and maybe you'll scare that nasty bug away.

Poor baby ........... :hug:

[bigwillq]

11. Thanks for the tips

I'm hoping when I drink some beer tonight that I will piss this cold away!

I'm taking Advil Cold and Sinus. It always seems to help me.

BTW, thanks for the hug!:hi:

10. You need toasty thick red socks...ewwww...Not "Red", just red

it really works. Gotta be red, nice warm color. If you insist you can't face red at this point go with a deep orange.
:grouphug:

[Longgrain]

13. Agreed

We all need socks...and hugs...

:grouphug: :hug: :grouphug: :hug: :grouphug:

[sadinred]

19. socks are good. hugs are good. DUers are good.

:hug: :grouphug: :toast:

[bigwillq]

16. I'd rather go with the orange

That's an interesting tip. Thanks!

[Lady Effingbroke]

Drink some tea.

:)

[bigwillq]

18. I'm drinking Iced Tea

I have no access to hot tea at this moment since I'm at work. Maybe I'll go to D&D later.


Thanks for the hug!:hi:

[Placebo]

20. Why would I hug someone who's getting sick?

So I can get sick too??? Ew. :puke:

...

Oh FINE. :hug:

[bigwillq]

21. Now, I'm going to cry

No one wants to be around me!! :cry:


But thanks for the hug anyway!:hi:

[Longgrain]

22. It's getting cold up here in New England...

Might also want to add to the list...warm fluffy blanky, hat, and warm toasty fire...Hmmmm

Anyone else feel like roasting some marshmallows?

[bigwillq]

23. I just ate my chicken wings and fries and by golly....

I feel a little better. Now, I'm going to take another Advil Cold and Sinus.
