    I've got a stinky cold at the moment and it's about my third this year. I thought it was a bit weird, considering how freaky I am about hygeiene and avoiding germs etc, but somehow I end up getting colds all the time but never stomach bugs. *knocks on wood*

    I usually get around 4 a year- 2 that are really bad, and 2 that are just minor annoyances.


    I think they mostly are due to me being run down due to work, school, or travelling. I usually don't get much sleep, but in a period where I have a lot to do, I may only get about 2 hours a night. I think that's what gets me.

    I don't have much contact with other people and I'm always careful to
    wash my hands after having been in a public place-- so when things are
    good, I maybe get one cold a year. When my brother lived here (and
    infected the entire household repeatedly, sometimes ON PURPOSE), it was
    more like four. I can go from cold to pneumonia in .46 seconds, so I'm glad my brother is gone, heh. :|

    I only get a cold about once every few years (if that)... Whenever anyone's sick with a cold or the flu it doesn't bother me because I never catch it!

    I seem to be very susceptible to the common cold, I mean, if someone sneezes on tv I catch a cold. fortunately I don`t catch sv`s easily, my life would be a nightmare if I did!
