11/14/2013: "Lost Half of Day"

Well now. I just got up. This is different, waking up with a full blaze of sun coming in. This is a most unusual thing for me, losing half a day to sleep.

I blame Nyquil.

Yesterday I started sniffling a lot and then blowing my nose. Hm. Allergies kicking in... so I took some Alavert. Helped some. But a little later on, I was making that "koff hm" clearing throat sound. Hmmm. Ut oh. And by the time I was heading off to bed, I was coughing. I looked for my Mucinex D and realized I need to buy some. What do I have what do I have as I searched through my cabinet. Nyquil. Oooh. Hm. I don't like to take that as I know it really zonks me out, but I'm feeling a little rough and I know I won't sleep with the junk starting to congest in my throat and chest. Okay. One little medicine cup attached full. My head touched the pillow and out I went. I was tired to begin with. I remember getting up to go to the bathroom and just about falling off the toilet as I drifted off there on the seat. Crap (no pun intended but hee hee) Back to bed and now here it is One, one thirty in the afternoon. Wow.

Now mind you, I'm not a breakfast eater, but right away I made toast, had a cup of orange juice and am now sipping my coffee. Figured it best to eat something before I get that drugged hangover feeling. I'm doing fine, but clearing my throat and sniffling. ::sighs:: I think I have a cold. If I get out today, I'll pick up some muscinex since I know that's what works for me. If not... I'll just use the sudafed stuff for tonight. No more of that Nyquil unless I really really need to use it.

Blech.

Enough blah blah for today.

Good Day and Good Blessings!
