it is never a good thing when you go to the school nurse and ask her to listen to your lungs, and upon sticking the stethoscope to your back and telling you to inhale and exhale, the first words out of her mouth are, "oh, my gosh..." followed by, "oh, that sounds really bad".
basically, i have gunk in my lungs, and if i don't get it out (and quick) i will be stuck with pneumonia. unfortunately, i have coughed my throat raw and nothing is coming out. but i make awesome sounds when i breathe!
but there's an upside (no, making awesome sounds when i breathe was NOT the upside). one of the many homeless people (aka backpackers, visitors from abroad, and a variety of other friends) who stayed in my house near the end of last year just "happened" to leave some Mucinex expectorant in my medicine cabinet. score. so i have 4 of those horse pills to ration out as i pray that it's enough to get out whatever it is i have in my lungs!
