Merry Coldmas?

I feel terrible.
I caught the Cold From Hell that my father has been fighting for the past two months.
My whole face feels swollen-- I feel like Rocky after a fight. My eyes are swollen, my nose is swollen, my lips are swollen, I feel quite revolting.
I have a charming slack-jawed look right now, since breathing through my nose ain't gonna happen.
I'm hoping my cold will clear up before school starts, thanks to my young, super-immune system. I take vitamin C religiously, I don't think I've had a cold in over a year (that I can recall, anyway).
Worse, I'm sure this is a virus, since antibiotics did nothing for my father (except clear up some secondary infections), which means there is nothing I can do except sleep and get lots of fluids.
I have a mild fever (well, for me... I'm at 100 degrees Farhenheit right now, which is low for me. If I do get sick, I tend to get horrible 104 degree fevers, which makes your skin hurt, you shiver uncontrollably, and when sleeping, you get bizarre, extremely realistic dreams, and the occasional hallucination is not surprising. I tend to only take a fever-reducer when my fever gets too high, above 102-103 or so.)
Also, I just sneezed all over my cat. Payback's a bitch, huh Ben?

Anyway, in short:

I hate being sick.

And now I'm going to try and sleep some more, though maybe I'll have some nice chicken noodle soup first.

Holidays!

Merry Christmas!
Happy Hanukkah!
Jolly (What does one say for Kwanzaa?) Kwanzaa!
Or, if none of that applies, have a great Festivus!

What now? What's with this blogger thingie?

What the hell? "Blogger"? What is that? Huh? What? I haven't written an entry for what? In how long? I don't know what you're speaking of. Who is this "Chloe" person? Huh? Who am I?

(Would amnesia be an acceptable reason to not write an entry for almost 2 months? Yes?)
(Shit. If only I had amnesia.)

No, but seriously, I was just perusing my favorites tonight, and I happened to click on a folder ever so cleverly entitled "Stuff". Within I found a link to this website, blogger, and another website, though why I gave them a folder of their very own is honestly beyond me. It is the only folder in all my favorites, except for the one entitled "Links" that Yahoo! apparently autoinstalls when you download Yahoo! toolbar or Yahoo! messenger, or touch Yahoo! with a forty foot pole, because Yahoo! owns your soul (not yet? Just wait. Yahoo! will BREAK you).

While I do have a very good excuse for not posting any entries during finals week and the few weeks leading up to it (because, ohmygod. The schoolwork. It never ended. I thought I might go insane. Why the fuck did I go with CHEMISTRY as a major? Because I am an idiot jackhole, that's why.)

So, you're looking for actual content again? Sorry, no dice. I don't have anything to write about. Well, I do have an entry under request, but I am unmotivated to do actual work. Or anything, really, besides sleep and read. And go to work. I love books.

Did you see the new picture on my profile? Yay. Perhaps if my blogger account isn't associated with a picture that makes me want to slap myself repeatedly, I will post entries more frequently.
Perhaps not.
But still. I will try.

And... I guess I'll go to sleep now. Maybe. Or I could read... hmmm... books. Yum.
