Oh, man.That's it -- I have GOT to go see a doctor about this nose. I'm 90% positive that I have a sinus infection, and this sucker is NOT going away. And I have way too much stuff to do at work to keep taking sick leave or working at home -- Jan wants me to be in charge of Pepper, I have user guides to turn in, there's Material Data templates to do, and then we're still looking for Stateside contract work.

I know, I know -- how fascinating. I also have a book to finish, two short stories on the boil, a quilt to finish, tons of cleaning around here to do, and the Stockholm Trivia Quiz on Saturday (it's a radio broadcast, I'm part of the TBS team, and we're in the semi-finals). Besides which, I'm just bloody sick and tired of being sick. I want to stop coughing and feel like doing something again, dammit. So if it means I have to take antibiotics for a week, I'll swallow the damn pills.

In the meantime, upon the recommendation of a nurse, I'm going to go and squirt some nasal decongestant spray up my honker. Maybe some direct topical treatment may help.

Bleah. . .
