sick as a dog
But I still crack myself up sometimes. Behold!
I woke up this morning feeling so utterly crappy that I actually went to the doctor. She listened to me bark like a harbor seal, then gave me a prescription for antibiotics and cough syrup.
When I picked up the durgs later from the durgstore, I was surprised at the largeness of the bottle of cough syrup. I was about to take a swig of it for the road (I was going to see my therapist), when it occurred to me that it might be the kind of cough syrup that makes you sleepy. BEHOLD! 400 ML of cough syrup with Codeine! I did a little happy dance.
Abbie insisted that I blog about it. Here you go.
Seriously, I crack myself up. Am having nap now.

Now you have to come up with a name for your new martini. How about "codinatini". You could, of course, mix it with champagne and make a tasty "chamcodin". Whatever gets you through the night, old pal!

What is it with you, girl? You're even adorable sick.

I miss the days when I could take Codeine, Vicodin, and Morphine without getting hives. Thankfully, giving birth opened my eyes to a whole new world of synthetic narcotics that I am not allergic too! Yay for modern medical science!

Hope you're feeling better!

O...M...G... You crack me up!
I have to agree with Abbie - your cough syrup martini needs a name. And I seem to be drawn to "codinati."
