Tell me about it, it sucks. How do I get rid of this cold?
During that 25 minutes go to the supermarket and buy a bottle of Port and a bottle of Brandy.
Get home, pour 1/2 pint of Port and 1/2 pint of Brandy into a pint glass and stir.
Proceed to drink the mixture in the glass.
When 1/4 way thru, stumble to the lemon mix, pour into a mug and neck in 1.
Repeat process until pint glass is empty.
You will never remember you had a cold! 😀😀

To get rid of a cold, you need a bed with bedposts and you have to wear be a person who wears a hat. Get a three or four bottles of scotch (I'm told scotch works best, but I like Irish whiskey. I suppose tequila will do too) and hang the hat up on one of the bedposts. Then start drinking the scotch until you see two hats on the bedpost. When you wake up, if you wake up at all, the cold will be gone. 🙄
Seriously, the only thing you can do is let it run its course and get plenty of sleep and drink lots of liquids (hmm, but not scotch or the like. 🙂
