Cough syrup+ Non-tolderant MiniMandaRuth= Not a fun day.
I felt really sick this morning. So I took some cough syrup. Never had had it before. Thing is, I accidentally had a little too much. Not enough to knock me flat. But enough to trip me out pretty badly.

Wooo... nearly fell down the stairs twice this morning, once with a bari sax. Oygh. And then I turned in math homework to my english teacher. And then I called my science teacher 'mom'.

By noon I was fine. I said 'blargh' about ninety times, though.

1. Poor thing! Sorry about your bad day.
I hope you are feeling better soon! :hi:

I couldn't help but laugh at calling your science teacher "mom." How did she respond?

3. Stuff can pack a punch.
I never knew it could till i was in prison and would have people beg to buy my cough syrup. Later on i learned about the whole "robo" thingy.

Lol! I'm glad i did not know till i was older. If i had of known when i was young i might have been a cough syrup junky.

Hope ya feel better.

4. Never mind cough syrup!
Get some GREEN NyQuil. It is the best medicine of all time.

Your science teacher will grow a halo, once you come out of your coma.

Hope you feel better! :hug:

6. NyQuil...heh... don't EVER use it as a sleep aid...
Back in 2000, I was going through a manic phase, apparently and I was having difficulty sleeping. I was only getting 4-5 hours of sleep, tops. Anyways, one night I was having trouble sleeping and I had to go to work the next day. So, stupid me, I got up and took some red Nyquil. Went back to bed and still couldn't sleep. The hour that I had to get up to go to work slowly came by. Meanwhile, I was having "stress shakes" and my stomach was sick. I threw it up and... it was just horrible. I took in a sick day, much to my boss's charign. (She was only a few years younger than me and she was asst. manager.

I will never use Nyquil as a sleep aid because you will still feel crappy and tired.

9. Yikes
Well... the only real mistake you made was using red NyQuil. That stuff is poisonous crap! Gotta go GREEN. :D

When you're sick, stay home. The hell with work! :-)

I'm on disability due to my bi-polar, it sucks but then again I just gotta find my niche and be able to go from that.

7. someone told me once
that cough syrup is just cherry brandy with a different label so people won't know they're drinking 'booze'.
