Holiday Cocktails

I’ve been a bit under the weather lately, and have resorted to a series of daily cocktails: Robitussin during the day (every 4 hours or so), and a bit of NyQuil at night.

The first evening I did NyQuil, it felt like horse tranquilizers. I slept great, but it took a few hours before I could fully shake off the residual haze the next morning. Every night since, I’ve lessened the dosage… and though it’s helped with my morning grogginess, I’ve slept poorly – waking up every few hours through the night.

It’s been like this for a few days now, but I’m hoping it’ll wind down soon. Every once in a while it feels like it’s receding, but then something else happens that makes me think Nope, I’m still pretty sick.
