Have you ever had sinus pain that was so bad your teeth ached?
I am out of denial and fully accept that I have a full on head cold. This afternoon I was blessed when a friend who called from Jamaica (he actually lives there.) He called about something else but of course when I am sick I whine to anyone who will listen (hence the blogpost
). He recommended I mix limes with honey and drink garlic tea.
Well … that's just … ::: shrugging shoulders ::: … that's just crazy!
Isn't it?
As much as I love my Jamaican brother, I did buy some other kind of serious drugs and am now zombified on the couch blogging. Fox News plays in the background and I look forward to tonight's round of American Idol. Unless the drugs take over and I can't stay awake.

So ::: sniffle ::: what do you do to survive/combat/kill a head cold?

Pooooooor Randy!!!
Sympathy is the first necessity to overcoming a headcold. Pooooooor Randy!!!
Other helps: hot peppermint tea, lots of extra vitamin C, lots of EARLY BEDTIMES, lots of water (thins mucous and flushes bad stuff out of your system), major avoidance of sugar and corn suryp type foods…and, yes, garlic. Red sauce is your friend.
Get better soon, Randissimo.
Randy,
Go to the health food store and tell them you want “cats claw tea” and “elderberry extract” . I know it sounds goofy, but it really works. It won’t instantly make you feel better, but it will seriously shorten the length of your cold. The tea will make your congestion better though.
You don’t have to post this on your blog, since I know I am on you not so nice people list, but….I am nicer than you believe.
