Does my cough sound SARS-y to you?

If I don't get over this cold thing soon, I'm going to go crazy.

It has rained darn near every day since I got to Maryland, a month and a half ago. And I've been fighting the good fight with this headcold for the past week, but it does not seem to want to go away. I've been through a whole box of nasal decongestants, half a box of Honey Lemon TheraFlu (which tastes much better with a little suger added), and a whole bag of cough drops.

Today is the first bright, sunny morning I've seen in a long time. Could it be possible? Might I make it through a day without any rain? Will my poor flowers finally get some sun? Maybe it will actually be WARM outside today, considering it's JUNE, FER CRYING OUT LOUD!

All I ask is a little sun. A little sun to warm my face, and make me feel like it's not the dead of winter. Because this rainy, cold mess that we've had going on for a bit now feels like wintertime in Charleston, and I've had my fill, thank you.

Hmm, thought we'd get an audio clip or something

It's probably just the flu. Get well soon, though.

I'm feeling better now that I've had a semi-productive day. I tried to clean out the garden a little, got some laundry done, and basically laid about the house the rest of the day. All in all, it was kind of nice.

But I still totally want to get out of the house and do something.
