happy holidays....

because, i am a little late on the merry christmas....

here is to 2008!

-s

i want to spend money somewhere other than my local drug store....

so then,

• three boxes of tissue (lotion infused, because if there was ever a better invention i am not aware of it...)

• two packages of ricola throat lozenges - original flavor

• one package halls throat lozenges - honey and something or other flavor

• one package of generic brand sudafed - over the counter formula to thwart the meth addicts...

• one package of official sudafed, from behind the counter - (the purchase of which made me feel like a meth addict for all the information they took....)

• one bottle of cough syrup - non codeine infused because, well, i was working and that seemed like a bad idea, and... i am not sure the pharmacist would have sold it to me anyhow....

• two boxes of theraflu - the new formulation, unattractive to meth cookers

• two envelopes of theraflu  - the old, meth cooker attractive variety that i found in my cupboard...

• vick's vapor rub one night, on my chest and under my nose - stung, boy did it sting, because even though i am using that lotioned tissue, i have been blowing my nose a lot...

• gargled with salt water - one time too salty as i was pretty sure my tongue was floating therefore making it more difficult to gargle very effectively

• lots of tea, hot water with orange, vitamin c tablets and advil....

• wine two nights, gin and tonics one other night, because - well, a girl has gotta live...

AND I AM STILL SICK!!!! with a wicked case of laryngitis which turns out to be more alarming than sexy....  i am hoping that time will cure this as nothing else has seemed to do the trick.
