Yesterday during the day my fever went away and I felt somewhat better. But then by the end of the day I was feeling a little dizzy and warm again. And I spent a miserable night being hot and shivery and just feeling...yucky. And now I'm so congested that I can barely breathe through my nose. The last set of sinus infections were mostly throat-based, and those were much more tolerable because I could breathe. This one sucks. My neck and my side are in knots from constantly blowing my nose.

I'm sorry just to whine and flail, but I'm just so...miserable. blergh.

At least I got to rewatch When Harry Met Sally. I was thinking of it recently because [livejournal.com profile] gmth mentioned it, and it was on VH1 something, and now I'm remembering just how wonderful this movie is, and how I know so much of it by heart. "I am not your consolation prize." I love how tightly woven it is, yet it rambles...it's such a great example of a movie coming together in a perfect way. Love love love.

Oh, now Princess Bride is on. Thank you, TV gods, I appreciate it.

No no no. An aerosol won't do much of anything. You need a LOT of fluid to flush out all the crud in your head and an aerosol won't do it when you're so congested.

Get the neti pot and dry powdered saline stuff that you mix with warm water (I buy a couple of gallons of distilled water to use and then heat a couple of cups of water up in the microwave and carefully test the water temp before using -- you definitely don't want water that is too hot!).

There's how-to videos on the site. You can buy the neti pot kits at Walgreen's.
