18 days ago, I mentioned something about doing a Joe post. Then work got busy again so any hopes of hearing new Joe-isms were crashed. And now for the past few days I've had a cold. Nothing too bad, just a little coughing, lots of sneezing (at least 1 in 5 with gross, mucusy projectiles), and a constant nose drip. I mean literally CONSTANT. It refuses to stop running. How much more can possibly be in there? I'm starting to fear that eventually, my nose and, maybe even my entire head, will just dry up, shrivel and fall off.
I tore through a box of Kleenex yesterday, but all I have to show for it is a trash barrel filled with hardened, crumpled up tissues and the assurance that in a couple of days, I'm going to have those gross sores all under my nose.
But I've just made a medical breakthrough. If I stick Kleenix in my nostrils and hold it in place with a piece of tape that runs across the bridge of my nose to my cheeks, I can stop the dripping, and hopefully avoid the horrible sores from too much wiping. I've been wearing it now for twenty minutes. So far, so good! Take that, you lousy cold!

a 5 year old could have come up with that solution to the constant drip...
OK. I didn't read it.
"a 5 year old could have come up with that solution to the constant drip..."
But they didn't. It was all me, baby.
That's how I felt...only I didn't tape things to my face. Still, don't knock it till you've tried it, I guess.
Huh. Guess I should have obeyed the title.
At least you aren't hacking up things you can't chew.
trinamick said, "...at least you're not hacking up things you can't chew."
To which I add, "...yet."
An alternative solution to your drip, when the tissues become so soaked that you can't stand it: find a local winery and have them fashion special corks you can jam up there. It works! Have you ever seen a wine bottle leak? HAH?
I think you should market this clever idea of yours: "Say 'no' to drippy noses with new 'No Drip,' the non-dripping, non-slipping nose napkin with the novel No Drip, drip-not design. Knowing noses know No Drip neutralizes the drip drop of drippy drips. Try No Drip today!"
you also still have to explain the apples song.
wasnt there supposed to be a joe post somewhere along the way?
You can't still be sick! What the hell?
We need a chant when you slack off too much.
Just be glad I didn't fall through a roof
Why?
I don't know. You got me.
cause it would probably be worse than that time you played football
John - stop by the blog sometime. There is a little something waiting for you there.
I didn't read it either!
