It's about five days til my wedding and I'm fighting some sinus travesty.

I need this like I need a hole in my head. I have too much to do in the next few days, and now I'm doing my damndest to get rid of this.

I've tried body wraps for detoxing. I've ingested so much garlic and chicken soup the apartment smells.

I need some kind words and prayers if applicable. I know it sounds pithy.

But I look like crap and I don't want to feel like it too.

Gonna go try and air out the garlic smell in the place and hope the tylenol sinus kicks in soon so I can sleep...wahhhh :cry:

I don't want to stomp on your right to whine, but I think the inaugural days of this new board should be all about the happy...

charli,

my wife was in the hospital the night before our wedding. she has a big load of medical problems, most of which are hard to regulate or control. a normal life it ain't. but sheer willpower made her better (almost literally) in the last hour, we talked the doctor's into getting her discharged, and the next day we were husband and wife. our two year anniversary is next month!

You can do it!

relax, hon.
it will all get done and stuff that doesn't will be just fine.
you've gotta let go of the anxiety because you'll just get sicker and won't enjoy yourself. people forget to enjoy themselves at their own weddings.
do. not. panic.

What a smart, smart, awesome person.

Everything will fall into place and be fabulous, you'll see. Just breathe. I'll send, like, breathing vibes your way.

shove some vicks up your nose, spread some vicks on your throat, boil some hot water, throw a towel over both your head and the boiling pot of water (remove it from the flame first, you don't want to start a fire), and stir a wooden spoon that has a healthy glob of vicks into the water while making sure your eyes are completely shut. Cause that shit will burn.

But all the snot will fall out of your head, you'll feel loads better, and it's a hell of an astringent. Those pores will open right up and all the shit that might be in them will fall out. It's like turning your whole face into one giant, steaming, super-menthol cigarette, but without the nasty tobacco smell.

Your face will feel deliciously cool after you remove the towel and come up for air, but stay under that towel for a good 10-15 minutes.

Trust me, my dad would pull that shit on me all the time. And it works.

Nearly instant relief can be yours.

you're the victim of the periodic "old thread bumping" fun people like to have when there's nothing else to do.

:roll: yeah old thread bumping isn't nearly as entertaining as sharing my latest poetry or pretending to be a suicide girl to satisfy the 10% of me that needs to do social experiements.

Yes, but we were reminded of some very helpful insight from Phil that I'm happy to have now read.
