Sneezes, coughs and sniffles

Isn't it just typical? I'm feeling the best I have in months and I get an ear infection, followed closely by a cold. It's just NOT funny. I hate being ill. It makes me grumpy and irritable, and stops me from doing stuff. Fortunately, I got some ear drops which cleared up the infection quickly but the cold is taking longer to go. At least the cough is gone, but I still have a bit of a blocked nose. Mind you, a friend did say to me that I sounded sexy when I spoke 'coz my voice had gone all husky!!! I guess there is at least one advantage to having a cold :)
So, because I am feeling better, it looks like I will be going on my sister's hen night tonight. We are going out for drinks, then on to a comedy club - it should be alot of fun. I think I will still be careful about how much I drink though because of the medication I've had to take this week. Besides, there needs to be a relatively 'with-it' person to make sure that we don't leave anyone behind tonight when we catch the minibus home!
BTW - it's 8 days till my birthday.....
