Dear Cold (from Hell that just won't go away)

I get it, I give up, you win.
I normally just keep going, doing what I do and cough a little extra and call it good. But this time I have to admit it’s not going to work. A few hits of Nyquil each night isn’t going to cover it. So this morning I went by Albertson and got Theraflu (and I’m planning on taking the maximum amount you can take before there’s risk for liver injuries) and even though I’m still at work and not curled up in bed like I know you want me to, that’s where I’m headed as soon as I get off.
I’m resting, I’m taking medication, I’m staying warm and dry and I plan to get plenty of sleep.
Happy?
So just let me get better, please.
