When you are suffering from a post-nasal drip it is truly amazing how much air you can swallow as part of the process of trying to get that stuff away from the back of your throat.

It is also truly amazing how handy having left the glass you were using to drink orange juice from on your desk, rather than having put it in the sink, can be, since the evacuation of all that air from your digestive tract will occasionally lead the rest of the smooth muscles to places you wouldn't ordinarily want them to go and you're not necessarily fast enough to make it to the loo first.

So much for a night of rejuvenating and restful sleep. I think I'm gonna sack out on the couch and call in sick tomorrow, even if I don't have a fever.

Likewise. Also: Mucinex. Get the plain kind, not the decongestant-added variety, because the decongestatnt will drive you nuts, while the plain Mucinex will just thin out your inner slime (remember to drink lots of water) so you can get rid of it with less struggling.

Oh man, do I ever know how that happens. Yeah, that's why I keep a glass on the desk too.

Stupid post-nasal drip. I quite know the feeling on that count, at least.
