Optimist:

What's your audition for? You a singer?

-KKC

PS: Love your signature quotation.

Edited to add:

1) SLEEEEEEEP! As much as possible.

2) Drink TONS of liquids, especially those that are high in Vitamin C.

3) Try ionized Zinc lozenges, like Cold-eez. I know they taste terrible, but they do stimulate your immune system.

4) SLEEEEEEEP some more.

5) Wash your hands, especially after doing things like blowing your nose.

6) Change your toothbrush and chapstick, etc. It'll keep you from re-infecting yourself.

7) For heaven's sake, don't smooch anybody.

8) SLEEEEEEEP some more.

9) Start taking a decongestant like Sudafed and/or an expectorant like Robitussin. It'll keep you loose and draining and prevent it from developing into a bacterial infection in your sinuses or chest.
