Hack, cough...snort - I don't feel sexy today
Called in sick to work for the first time in years. I must have the worst cough I've ever had in my life today. Last night I got about two minutes of sleep, I was going to get up at 5 to go to work but when five rolled around I surrendered.

hack.

5. lots of fluids
If the cough is non-productive, run the humidifier throughout the day and use Vicks Vapor Rub and a good expectorant. Try to get your cough working for you while you're awake during the day.

Then at night, shut it down w/ a really good cough suppressant.

7. You sure are - even if you don't feel it
Get a really kick-ass cough medicine one that will knock you out as well.

Feel better soon, we'll miss the polar bears terribly if you vanish for long.
