Semi-cold kind of life

I am trying to find a way to actually physically wrap myself around my cup of tea. I'm fighting off a cold of some sort, a cold that is taking root in my chest, with copious amounts of Chamomile/Lemon tea. I find it highly unlikely that there is any kind of medicinal value in fighting a cold with tea, but it makes me feel better.

At this point I am winning the battle. The occasional cough, a smidgen of chest thightness and my "just a little bit more insane than usual" sick demeanous is what I'm experiencing. I have no yet been beset with the oozing symptoms that make me want to tear my nose clear off my face, which is good. I'm trying to keep all that a bay for the weekend at least as my mother is coming to visit.

Maybe I'd have more success at keeping the cold away if I tried to actually tried to fit my whole being into this cup?
