Still coughing

After a week, or about close to a week, I’m still coughing.

It sucks when I really want to rest but I can’t control the cough. Or if Clarice wants to rest, and I keep coughing.

I’ve tried so many liquids to quell the itch, but it just goes.

I’m really just so done with my throat.

It happens every few years, I’ll get this bout of a really itchy raspy throat, and it just lingers for a long time. I don’t really like to fall sick, so when I do get something it this it really throws me off and I feel so completely miserable.

I remember one of the times this happened, I was in reservist. I was coughing and hacking my phlegm all over the place. My friend came up to me and said, hey you know that’s damn gross. I said yeah what to do.

I could have not turned up actually and just stayed sick in bunk, and I really wanted to do that. But I hated the idea of doing another reservist cycle so I decided against that. Funny enough, I think I determined if I cleared my reservist or not. I should have given myself a break.
