Well, I work with the public...and I have to appear somewhat lucid when I do so because I handle sharp objects for a living.

Plus, it's hard to get through a day when you feel miserable and have to be nice to people and have to put all your energy into pretending you're not (that) sick, 'cos people don't want your cooties! So, yeah...I'm not really a pill popper, either, but cold tablets are something I make an exception for.
And as we discovered in the dream thread, the NyQuil can be waaaaaaaaaay entertaining!
If I don't stop coughing by Christmas, I'll go to the doctor; at that point, I totally have bronchitis.
Go eat some ice cream.
And what ice cream can't fix, vodka can.
