Ah - drugs. Sweet, sweet drugs.

OK - as a preface I should say that I am almost never sick. As a result, when I do get sick I tend not only to spend my internal monologue whining and moaning about being sick, but also to mentally think 'I'm not really sick sick - I just think I'm sick because I'm such a big baby.'

Well, after three weeks of me being 'not really sick sick' and waiting for this lingering cold to go away, my boss had had quite enough and insisted that I call up my doctor and have them prescribe Z-pac over the phone. Well, since I'm never sick, my doctor would not so prescribe without me going in, which I did early this morning. The result? Not only do I now have the Z-pac coursing through my system (for the sinus infection) but also Albuterol (for the bronchitis).

Yay drugs - godspeed to youse!

Being at work on Nyquil and trying to stay awake while being doped up is fun too. :)

You're a better man than I am, MA - I've tried Nyquil exactly once - it totally freaked me out when it knocked me on my ass - people in the room at the time report that I feel asleep in the middle of a sentence.
