My throat hurts so badly that I can barely swallow. The pain is right at the top behind my nose, which has had me waving my hands like a mad woman, because I kind of want to rub it better except I can't because...you know...it's inside my head. This is a definite design flaw. I think it's just a cold - I'm not running a fever or anything like that, I just feel run down - but if it gets worse overnight, I'm going to have to think carefully about my London trip tomorrow.

*sigh* How does my body know these things, and make me sick just before something I really want to do? I'm due to visit a law firm library and have dinner with my mum tomorrow. I can just imagine how thrilled everyone on the train will be if I get on sniffing and sneezing.

But I'll worry about that in the morning. For the moment, I just have to work out how to swallow without giving myself earache.

OWWWWWW :(

My dad swears by a hot salt-water gargle for a sore throat.

*leans* yeah, I know that in theory, but in practice, that tends to make me throw up, so I'll stick to super-hot rooibos tea for now ;) As long as it doesn't get worse, I should be fine *crosses fingers* Thanks hon.

Yeah, throwing up would definitely defeat the purpose. I prefer the tea option, myself. I hope you feel better and can take your trip!
