THAT'S ENOUGH OF THAT, REALLY

So it turns out I was in line to get my H1N1 visa renewed, as it were, and I'm over it now, but am left with a cough that my doctor says has the potential to stick around for up to four to six weeks. Just the cough, mind you. Why do coughs always do that bullshit? I remember getting a cough when I was in high school that stuck around for at least that long, if not longer. Or was that in college? Sheeeeeeeeeit, I guess I don't remember.
