it's 4 am

This is the third night in a row that my cold has kept me up through the night. Tonight is the worst yet. I can't sleep because I keep coughing and I keep coughing because I can't seem to get back to sleep.

That and there's a persistent phlem wad in my throat that keeps tickling my tonsils and making me feel just wonderful.

I'm so exhausted. This bites.
