Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

Our wings are not tired

Am I the only person who not only watched the video for 2 Girls, but also read the whole website? It's gone now, but it was an exercise in the truly disturbing to read the whole thing.

...no. Knowing what it was was plenty for me.

Anyone want to write a craiglist ad for me? I'm bored. And lonesome. And...bored.

Or you could just write more posts here. That would work.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I would but I just finished up everything I have to get done tonight and I'm going to go watch the second half of Watchmen. woot!

Can anyone tell me about Mucinex? I have been blowing my nose and coughing non-stop all day, and I would really rather not do that tomorrow, especially since we've got tickets for Watchmen. Would Mucinex help me feel vaguely human?

Er, it depends, Jilli--basically, be careful on the amounts of stuff you take. For example, if you take "tylenol cold" or what have you, it'll usually only have a little bit of dextromethorphan and guafenesin in it. But if you take something specifically for cough/cold like mucinex, it might have a HECK of a lot more in it. Some people end up feeling just as sick from the medication as they do from the sickness. I know I often do--it makes me feel very light headed and sick to my stomach.

If you do take it, DO eat something. Even if you feel nauseous, EAT something. It'll help.

Oh. Ew. That doesn't sound fun. But after much Googling, I learned that codeine is the most effective cough suppressant. So I'll take some of my stash of Feminax, which has caffeine and codeine, and I should be okay. Along with dark chocolate, which is also apparently a cough suppressant.

The status is NOT quo.

I wish I could stuff my uber awesome pneumonia cough syrup through the internets. It has codeine and goodness knows what else, and it works amazingly well.

Yeah. I mean, it WORKS. And some people don't have the side effects. And if I'm really having bad coughing, especially the kind with a lot of phlegm, it's good stuff--wayyyy more so than the useless amount of drug they give you in tylenol cold or whatever. But since depending on which kind you get, it maybe a "one pill, 12 hours" (er, that's what I've got in my medicine cabinet, gave to N at night, and she was cursing my name most of the next day), you might not be able to take a half dose, and it may last a long time...

All is well that ends in pizza.

After seeing other captions on this pic, I knew I had to make this ICHC tribute to Two Lumps:

I'm a big Mucinex fan. The three versions come in handy at different times. The one with the supressant is my nex of choice when I am not feeling all that sick but am still too coughy to be in public without being appalling.
