Ah, that awkward moment when you're out in public and you run into a former work acquaintance that you've always been friendly with but haven't seen in a long time, she greets you by name, and you cannot. remember. her name. I hope I didn't sound insincere when talking with her, but I was distracted by trying to remember her name. I finally managed to dig up what feels like the right name, an hour later as I was walking home. God, I'm good at people. /sarcasm

In other news, the weather turned chilly over night and my sinuses exploded. The dayquil did eventually ease the headache but just now I leaned my face against my hand and it hurt. I was very glad to already have the day off work. And hey, I managed to tidy/dust/vacuum the living room, fold one load of laundry, and make a run to Target in spite of feeling like crap. I wanted to buy a comforter but didn't like what they had, so I picked a really soft but warm looking blanket instead and with the amount of money I saved, I was able to buy a set of seasonal flannel sheets and still stay well under budget. The combo of dayquil, coffee and headache hit me hard in the middle of shopping, though, so I cut things off pretty abruptly, paid and was glad to have some fresh air on my face as I walked home.

And now it might be time to take some nyquil and go to bed, before my sinuses start to really freak out again.

Have you ever tried taking a good hot shower when your sinuses are acting out. I find it often helps. Hot compresses on the forehead can help too.

As for the remembering names business I think it happens to all of us--I certainly do it often.

Headaches are Evil. :(

Flannel sheets are worth their weight in gold!

I hope you're feeling better today. The flannel sheets sound very comfy.

Sorry about your sinuses. Hope you are feeling better. I do that with names constantly. I'm dreadful when it comes to people I haven't seen in a long time. Worse still, I rarely manage to remember their names even later. Lol. I think a large part of my memories slid out of my ears to make room for important things like recalling TV character's names and Internet sites.

I've never tried a shower as sinus reliever. I'll have to give that a try next time. :)

Thank goodness my sinus headaches usually only last a single day.

I've progressed from headache (Friday) to painful face/teeth/nose (Sunday) to painful sore throat yesterday to losing my voice today. I should be nearly done with this round of allergies pretty soon.

Yes, remembering internet sites and fav tv characters is more important than the name of some person not seen for years at a time. *true facts*
