in other (tmi) news, i have finally begun coughing as productively as a person needs to when she's got this kind of chest cold.* got a sharp little core of ick today, which in my experience is usually the beginning of the end, as though that bit were an irritant and all the rest were the body's way of trying to force it out. i know that's not how phlegm works -- as if you had a splinter in your bronchiae -- but still getting rid of that bit has always been a turning point for me. yay.
* the nurse, yesterday, when i mentioned it, said "Yes, everybody's got it, I'm afraid." and when i said i only brought it up because i'd coughed up a hunk of green phlegm and i know green is sometimes (though not always) a bad color for that sort of thing, she said "Better out than in!" heh.
