So Wendi brought home some store-brand “Tussin” liquid cold medicine yesterday. Great idea, since we were totally out of such. I took a dose in the morning, took another dose right before taking my five-hour nap (during which I did not sleep) and I took one more right before going to bed at night.

I did not sleep at all last night, nor in fact have I slept in the last 24 hours. I have, however, engaged in a lot of twitching, sweating, tossing and turning.

“Honey, that Tussin stuff… it’s non-drowsy isn’t it?”

“Oops.”

I’m at the office today, yes. But I’m wobbly, woozy and generally in less than peak condition. Conversation with me may be Twilight Zone in quality. You’ve been warned.

Tonight, no strange liquids. I am so tired.
