*sends some vitamin C your way, disguised as DayQUil*

500 milligrams a day, baby. It's the only way to go.

Yes *sniff* *cough* *sneeze* they do. :(

Too late

[bobquasit]

This is probably too late, but if you're in the first 24 hours of symptoms you might want to try Zycam. It really worked well for me. But you have to start using it as soon as you realize that you're catching a cold.

I'd recommend the swabs, because apparently some people have had some serious problems with the spray. But anyway, in my case, the Zycam cut my symptoms WAY down, and the length of the cold in half - really! And you know how bad my colds are.

Really sorry to hear about this, and I almost forgot to say that if you and Virgil are still up for it, we can do the day after Thanksgiving at my place...

Re: Too late

Thanks for the advice, but ti started Friday I think. Assuming this is better then I should be there for the day after thanksgiving.

I forgot to ask: Did you know that there's going to be a panel at the Arisia convention about LiveJournal? Really! I'll dig up the details, if you're interested. There's also one about blogs in general. I've signed up for the LJ one, although I probably won't get it.

Hmmm. So what's there to talk about on that topic?

[hugh_betcha]

What qualifies as a "Medium" fever? 99? 101? 351?

Since this is a week-and-a-half-late in showing, whatever it was, I -really- hope you're over it now. And if not, I hope you're making the most of it by claiming to have something fashionable, you know, like SARS or something.

And I'll hope that The Germans Aren't Mad At You!

[charibdis]

Medium fever is probably about 101. I think I am over it now.

I wasn't exactly up to snuff that Monday, but I did train the Germans in what they needed to be trained in, so all was good, and then took the next day off sick.
