The State of my Throat.

For the past few days I have been working under the assumption that the dread tonsilitis was back after a five week break. This would have been the third recurrence this summer. Which would mean I would most likely have to get snipped. I'm not in a hurry to go under the knife here, even if it means all the ice cream I can eat. Somehow, when you're a grown up with an exercise bike in your basement ice cream doesn't make surgery (however minor) seem like a positive. The good news is that today every indication is that this is just a common cold. The fever I didn't realize I had broke this morning and standing up and walking across a room no longer feels like doing a triathlon. I'm stuffing myself with Advil, Cold FX, Vitamin C and Oil of Oregano. I might even be well in time for the weekend. Take that tonsils. Take that. Anyone out there have any cold remedies they can't live without? I'm trying anything and everything...
