In case you’re wondering, which I know you are, this is exactly how I feel:

I feel like someone has taken a badger, warmed it slightly, dipped it in muddy water and shoved it up my nose. This badger, being an ornery sort, will occaisionally reach down my throat and draw one razor-sharp claw along the back of my esophogus. (esophagus? esophogas?)

The shower seems to help, what with the hot water and the relaxation and the steam and whatnot, but I can’t really stay in there all day. People would start to wonder what was going on and I bet my boss would be less than understanding.

Besides, I’d get all pruney.
