Resfriado

Estoy resfriada. Tengo un resfrio.... I don't even know how to say i have a cold in spanish much less get medication to fix the cold in spanish. (If someone can help me out on how to say I have a cold I would love them forever.)

I am sick in a foreign country without my mom or nightquil. It is not a good feeling. And just at a time when I actually wanted to leave my house. Now my heavy head is tied to my pillow.

Spanish seems to float around in my head getting stuck in all the mucus in my sinus cavities. The italian-sounding Spanish doesn't traslate through a cold. I feel like i have cotton in my ears. The soft sounds of castellano can't penetrate the thick cloud of sickness that is my head right now.

So I nod a lot and feel like it is my first week here except more I am more frustrated because i know if my ears would cooperate i could understand. But my body and will are in two different places right now so I am going to sleep, hoping they meet during the night.
