Yeah that *does* sound more like tonsillitis. :P Kid sister had that @ WP. It sucked muchly. She is now short one set of tonsils.

It is around this time when my dad (who is not a drinker by any stretch) breaks out the whiskey. ^^;

Barring that, maybe you should head down to the local Whole Foods and do a ginger shot? That'll either cure ya or kill ya. Either way, you'll have clear sinuses. ^^;
