Snot Rockets

I'm sick of having a cold. I'm in my 2nd week of this and I'm sick of being sick. I can't sleep at night. I'm tired of taking cold medicine. My throat is scratchy, my eyes are watery and I'm producing snot like Saudi Arabia produces oil. I've purchased so much Advil Cold and Sinus I'm under surveillance for possibly running a crystal meth lab.
