Shot and a Chaser

Starting the day off right: shot of DayQuil with a coffee chaser.

I’m now taking NyQuil in the evenings, to ensure that I can sleep without coughing. Over the last few days, there was at least one night where Liz and I were both jolted awake at 3AM with a coughing fit.

Not sure if one of us woke the other up, and that’s what started it. Or if it was just a randomly timed thing that hit us both at the same time. Regardless, it was funny (well, funny in hindsight).

In some ways, I feel like I’m taking DayQuil to recover from the lingering, sedative effects of the NyQuil I took the evening prior. As I’m going through this motion, it totally feels like a scam.

I’d complain to Vicks about this, but I’m a little too tired to do much about it at the moment. Maybe when I’m feeling a bit better.
