yuck

I've got one of those absolutely horrible colds, where your nose runs constantly, but it hurts to blow it properly because you've been blowing it all day and it's red and sore, and tomorrow morning make-up is not going to hide it. Your throat feels like it's been internally shredded every time you swallow, but you're starving hungry and really dry, so you have to eat and drink - which hurts. Your head buzzes, and occasionally goes completely to mush - no change there then...

Worst of all, the ears are starting to hurt, and that means ear infection and balance problems coming right up.

And it's only a cold, so I don't actually have any right to whinge at all, except here, where no-one can hear me (unless they're using talkie software). How dare the spell check not recognise whinge?

And I have to go to work tomorrow. No option.
