Have You Met New BFF, Neti?

Until today, all I knew about the Neti Pot was that it had a hilariously awkward video that I watched in college a couple of times for a good laugh.  Check it out.   However, today my sinuses were just that unbearable.  One of my kids sensed my misery and threw out the two words that I thought I never would have truly considered: Neti Pot.  I think it was the overdose of green tea and sleeping pills, but on my way home from work I made a pit stop at CVS to make the purchase.  The apartment was empty, so my roommates couldn't witness the actual actually sticking of the spout up one nostril, the positioning of the head at just the right angle, and the sailene solution draining out the other nostril.  The next fifteen seconds was uncomfortable to say the least, but once it was all said and done I felt like a new woman.  I was even beginning to reconsider my decision to postpone my run with Courtney Baker and go out and enjoy this beautiful day!  While I did not officially follow through with that thought, I can say that the Neti Pot does make laying in bed in PJ's with a book much more enjoyable during cold and flu season.  If you haven't already, join me, Dwight, and the Himilayan Institute chick and kick congestion with Neti!
