Got Medicine?

Still bat­tling the plague, but did make it to the clinic this week­end. The won­der­ful doc­tor gave me a nice, wide-spectrum antibi­otic and even bet­ter a codeine-based cough syrup. The past week or so, I’ve been get­ting very lit­tle sleep do to this nasty plague-induced cough but with this cough syrup I slept roughly 14 hours last night! Wahoo! It feels so good to be rested again.

    When you start walk­ing around the house with your cough syrup and a shot glass — you’re bet­ter enough to go to work. :)

    My plague hasn’t kept me from work­ing as I’ve been fine dur­ing the day­light hours (exclud­ing some minor cough­ing); it’s just at night I’ve really been hav­ing prob­lems. Besides, I couldn’t walk around the house with this cough syrup and a shot glass. 1 dose of it (2 tea­spoons, I think) is enough to knock me off my feet in 15 min­utes. Which really for me, is the glo­ri­ous point of tak­ing this nasty tast­ing stuff. 2 spoons and I get a solid night’s sleep. Sleep like I haven’t had in years. Ahhh, it’s good to be on pre­scrip­tions. :D
