Thursday Thirteen #51 -- I'm Cold
The best part of being a writer and having a large cast to write about is that when something happens to you, you can share the pleasure -- or, in this case, the misery.
Get the Thursday Thirteen code here!
The purpose of the meme is to get to know everyone who participates a little bit better every Thursday. Visiting fellow Thirteeners is encouraged! If you participate, leave the link to your Thirteen in others comments. It’s easy, and fun! Be sure to update your Thirteen with links that are left for you, as well! I will link to everyone who participates and leaves a link to their 13 things. Trackbacks, pings, comment links accepted!

1. If you're Trevor, you're too tired to chase girls under their boyfriends' noses. 2. If you're Mitchell, you don't feel like making music. 3. If you're Eric, you go through so many tissues, your nose turns red and scaly. 4. If you're Kerri, you pick up a pencil, make a few lines on a sketch pad, and put it aside in favor of a nap. 5. If you're Trevor, everyone gets worried because you're not eating everything in sight. 6. If you're Pam, you plaster a smile on your face and teach your aerobics class anyway. When you get home is when you can give in. 7. If you're Mitchell, you drink so many gallons of orange juice, you burp pulp. 8. If you're Chelle, you quietly stay in bed. 9. If you're Daniel, you whine at Val until she comes to take care of you. 10. If you're Trevor, you find some quiet girl who's the mothering type to smother you with attention for an hour or two. Then you get tired of her and ask her to leave so you can take a nap. When you wake up, you're glad she's gone and that your pants never got unzipped. 11. If you're Kerri, you hide as much of your misery as possible from Mitchell, or else he'll freak out and call Amy every ten minutes for unneeded medical advice. 12. If you're Val, you take Zicam and medicated cough drops at the first hint of a cold because you can't be slowed down. 13. If you're me, you sulk 'cause you hate being too foggy to write. |

LOL! #10 cracked me up. Trevor, have I told you lately that I love you? :)
I'm sorry you've got a cold, Susan. Colds suck, no matter how ya slice 'em. Or blow 'em. ACK! ;)
What I do when I have a cold is lie prostrate under a blanket of purring cats!
I hope you feel better soon, my friend.

Aww you too? Mine turned out to be Allergies but it still sucks.
Like seriously how much can a human head hold? As for the thing that I am happy about ... I thought another little bundle was on the way. Nope. Whew, I have too much going on next year. Little bundle would be welcome after Nationals. LOL!

Hope you feel better soon. So cool that you get to have the band help you out with your thirteen this week.
I'm feeling your pain and wondering how much longer I'll keep my eyes open! I just want to read, but the sinuses won't let me.
LOL! Fun list. Having a cold is miserable, no matter how you deal with it.

Yep, colds suck...dont forget the Zicam and Airbourne. That stuff rocks!! Happy TT my friend and thanks for stopping by:)
Oh I hate colds! I had a stomach virus last week and now I'm battling the beginnings of a cold. Maybe I should try that zicam stuf I can't be slowed down either!
Feel better!
Feel better!
I actually wrote the post on Tuesday, but yeah, the cold's lingering. I had to postpone my flu shot!
Hopefully it won't take up a last hurrah in my asthmatic lungs. It's not unheard of.

Germ X, Emergen-C, and Airborne are the best for prevention. I have them in warehouse size. I can't miss a day when I have so many students to suspend.
Fantastic TT as always ... check out my 13 suspensions I have already issued this school year.

I'm torn between #8 and #13 -- while I would adore a nap and peace and quiet, I would be grousing because I couldn't think of a thing to write about!! And reading is out of the question because of the headache that usually accompanies these things. Maybe Val is the smartest if she never gets sick!
Happy TT!
Happy TT!
Colds are annoying. I hope you feel better soon. When I'm feeling crappy, I tend to cocoon. I hate mental fogginess more than the physical symptoms. Get better soon!

I hope this doesn't mean you're sick and if it does, I hope you get better soon.
I'm a bit of Kerri and I can't remember the other one who teaches aerobics. If I have to do something, I grin and bear it, but if I don't, I'll end up resting because I can't concentrate. Now my boys it's definitely not eating everything in sight.
Take care and feel better.

I'm with you on #13, espcially with how I feel today. May we both feel better as soon as possible and may we make up the writing time we lost while unwell.
Hugs and wellness vibes,

And if you're my landlord, you call to say you can't put in the new window tomorrow after all. :)
Feel better soon--I'm so impressed at how witty you are when you're feeling miserable! {{{hugs}}}

If you're Rene, who's been sick for over a week, you work through it with a desk covered in tissues and a red and swollen nose.
Sorry you're sick too. :(

OMG! Funny and yet it does suck having a cold. Good for me I have a cabinet full of dried herbs and I know which ones to take and how. I seldom get sick, but when I do, I know how to fight it and get back on my feet fast.
A little magick does hurt either. :wink:

Have you noticed that everyone else's cold is always worse than yours... sending you cyber chicken soup..
Awww, poor Susan. GET BETTER SOON SWEETIE!! Lots of hugs your way, get better soon. And I'm still chuckling over these...the things you come up with!! =)
Doh..sorry you have a cold. I just got over #3 since Kidlet went back to school. Damn children and their germs.
Almost everyone I know has a cold, but I seem to have temporarily avoided it. I'll probably come down with one the moment I get a break from work!
Thanks for visiting my TT, btw.

Colds are definitely rotten! I had one with the most horrible sore throat a couple of weeks ago. Hope you feel better soon!
I love #10, and how completely inside Trevor's head you are! I also think it's neat the cold and flu season even manages to vex imaginary folks. It's a great equalizer.
Having a cold totally, totally sucks, she sayz inbetween coughing and sneezing and blowing her nose. On the bright side, a cold is a good excuse to spend the day snuggled up on the couch and watching Gene Kelly musical after Gene Kelly musical after Gene Kelly musical. (I'm sure it's good for the Muse, too! *g*)
Still, I hope you'll feel better soon!

Sorry, I've been having trouble catching up with your posts. Hope you quickly ditch that cold and get back to the writing board.
I hope you feel better soon, and can go get your flu shot (I get one every year-I swear by them). Have a great, quiet, and restful weekend.
