This is really starting to tick me off: Since discovering that my previous propensity for sickness was due to the cigarettes I was smoking (man, were they bad... John Player Specials), I've been a lot healthier. Hell, I even do exercise these days. And no, not the horizontal kind.

So it's doubly annoying when I wake up with a pounding headache and coughing my lungs up through my nose. I hate colds. I always get them: I seem to have no resistance to the damned things. Give me a forty-degree fever and I'll ignore it, work through it and sometimes not even notice I have it. Give me back pains, stomach pains, intestinal problems, eye aches, whatever: the only thing I can't seem to deal with is the stupid common cold.

Still, it gives me time at home with the cat on my lap, I guess.
