2nd week of the flu bug

I think that's what it is. Not sure. I have been coughing, sneezing, blowing, sleeping, feverish and shivering for two weeks now. Nothing I try seems to work. lemon, honey, cinnamon, tylenol, motrin, nyquil, NOTHING. I have not been to the doctor because there is such a line to get in there. I can't stand in line that long. I decided to tough it out and just medicate myself.

I can't taste anything either, with this stuff. Last night i had Sweet & Sour Soup and hot tea at Ying Ming. I went out with my rudolph nose and all. The tea tasted like hot water (and their tea is the best in town) and the soup tasted like hot water with pepper (they also have the best hot and sour soup on the planet). Tonight I am trying some chicken strips. I hope I can taste them.

I have been coughing myself silly at work for the past two weeks, so I'll go in again tomorrow still coughing and everyone will try to send me home. I CAN'T go home. My co-worker is off all week. If they send me home they have to close up shop. Should I take nyquil at work? I don't have any dayquil and can't really afford to go and buy anymore medicine. It's hard to answer the phone with cough drops in your mouth. I can do it. I can make it through another week for that paycheck at the end of the tunnel.
