Colds come in waves. At least, mine do. Stage one is always the sore throat, and it feels like fire cascading down my throat every time I swallow. And of course, once you realize how much it hurts to swallow, you suddenly can't stop doing it. Stage two is the stuffiness and runny nose. And this makes me sick to my stomach. My throat feels like it's closing up. I can usually guess at the length of each cold by how long the first two stages last. Because the final stage is a hacking cough. You know, the kind of coughing that tears up your chest? At least by then the sore throat is gone and the stuffiness is easing. I have already begun to cough, so I am hoping that this cold will be short-lived.

Anyway. Have been spending my day doing homework and catching up on fic from three fandoms: HP, Gravitation, and FAKE. Good stuff, though I think I may need to find something fluffy. Reika, the lovely author I have most recently been reading, has a penchant for the fics that rip your soul out through your mouth. I am slightly depressed now. So. Fluffiness? Anyone? *pleads while sniffling* Please? I would adore you for a very long time... ^_^
