I thought I had stashed two doses of NyQuil in my tote bag on Wednesday night, but apparently I only formed the intention and then forgot to actually carry through. So when I got to work today and it was time for my next dose, there was nothing in my bag.
*headdesk*
Fortunately one of the local Collegetown convenience stores had some NyQuil in stock, so I bought a four-dose box (which is a complete ripoff in terms of price, btw) and have gamely suffered through the day. I even successfully rented a studio!
I have permission from Mom Boss to close early, however, and I am going to take her up on that because I just want to fall into bed and sleep for thirteen hours in a row.
UGH.
(Look, I would love to use cold medicines other than NyQuil, but that's the only one that actually does diddly-squat to mitigate my symptoms. Other than old-formula Dimetapp, that is, but IIRC the FDA first diluted that to the point of ridiculousness and then banned it altogether. I am sure there were valid safety concerns involved, but mostly I'm sad because goddamn that weird purple syrup was effective.)
