Love Letters from Michelle: Generic NyQuil

There's a very special relationship in my life right now, it's me and generic NyQuil.

Oh breathing. We take it for granted until we get a cold. I was doing fine until last Monday morning. I woke up on Labor Day and I couldn't swallow. Crap, I thought, this is more than just my usual allergies, this is a cold.

Generally my colds last four or five days, with day three being unbearable. Not this time. This time I am on day nine and there's no end in sight.

I cancelled my plans last Friday night for you terrible Fall cold, but not this weekend. Me and my boyfriend generic NyQuil will spend so much time together from now until Friday night and then I'm going to a bar.
