blah...

This morning...have to get some medicine for this cold and sinus infection...hurry up antibiotics... get this mess out of here so I can function...Go to Walgreens... figure out what I need. Is it sinus? Allergy? Cold? Do I have a cough? Is a "productive" cough or should I get something to loosen up the phlegm? Nope...Dry cough. Scratchy throat? Sinus pain and pressure, or just pain? Congestion? Chest congestion or just sinuses? Sinus headache? YES! That's me. Sinus headache with pain and pressure...oh no, this one says for fever. Don't have that. Sinus...oh okay, here sinus headache...oh, no...May caused marked drowsiness. Can't take that...I am on the way to work. Let's see...here it is...sinus medicine for headache, pain, pressure, congestion...Perfect, just what I need.
This afternoon...Why do I still feel like someone is squeezing my head? Read the label on the medicine...yup...got the right thing...should have kept my $7.00 and bought chocolate Easter candy...would have had the same effect...might have been better...could have had a sugar rush instead of a medicine fog...non-drowsy, my arse...Would anyone notice if I put my head down? Can't do that, makes the pressure worse...there is ample napping room under my desk...no one would even see me.
When can I take another dose of something different? Is that safe? Should I just take some regular pain medicine? Stupid liars at the medicine factory...I don't feel any better...sucked me in with their promise of relief and fancy packaging...it's not nice to prey on the sick...I think I am delirious...5 more hours of work...awesome...I am certainly going to get a lot done today...I'll be under the desk if anyone needs me...
