My throat is fucking miserable and I swear if it prevents me from going out and seeing friends tonight I will punch it.

My throat has gone from normal sore to Just Weird sore, by hurting only on the right side. This helps a LOT in terms of talking and swallowing without my eyes tearing up, but it's still ow.
Intense oh-there-went-everything-I-just-ate nausea this morning but in all honesty I think that was my doing, not related to an illness. I had something first thing in the morning that's not supposed to be taken on an empty stomach. My tummy is already sensitive first thing in the morning, doing that was just extra stupid.
So anyway I'm having delicious hot tea and mmmm it feels good. I'm imagining* tonight, vaguely hoping for some hot mulled wine... oh man that'd feel awesome.
And suddenly the heavens opened up and blinded me for a moment. The gods thumped me on the head (gently because otherwise my head would asplode) and said "hey! Genius. Inflammation... pain... maybe some IBUPROFEN would help. So say we all." I blinked, went "ohhhh" and took some. So hopefully that helps! Thank you, random gods.
By "random gods", I mean "google". Same thing, really.
Seriously though I figured this was just a persistent** cold so I checked the whole two (three tops) symptoms and yeah, just a cold. And it recommended ibuprofen for the sore throat and I went "oh lol, duh" so I just took that and we'll see how that goes down.
*It took me four tries to spell that correctly. WTH.
**By 'persistent' I mean only since Sunday/Monday. So it's actually not that terrible, I'm just impatient.
