Really in bad shape

[pegkerr]

I have been coughing so much that my sides hurt. My voice is a rasp. Cough drops and Claritin have done little to help. I tried to exercise today, but it was dreadfully hard. I did a little weight lifting (only one rep) and tried a brisk walk on the treadmill, but even that, rather than elliptical, left me gasping after a mere eight minutes. Not the usual story.

Then tonight at karate, I went through my form twice, and then more or less collapsed, gasping. Sensei told me to stop.

I may have to renew my inhaler prescription. Damn.

This will not be a writing night. And I'm not going to feel guilty, dammit. *Glares around the room* If I had my icon-making software on the new computer, I'd make up one from the Mordor chapters, something like "Breathing was painful and difficult." Instead, I'm going to bed.

I've been told a teddy bear also is a great grab and squeeze item--they give them to heart patients in the hospitals, sometimes. 8^)
