Ugh

Spent most of today drugged to the gills with DayQuil. In an attempt to score some major Good Husband points, The VP cleared his afternoon schedule and came home to watch the boys so I could nap.

Married an absolute diamond, I did. No question who got the better deal that day we stepped into the nave and swapped vows.

So due to my under-the-weatherness, I have no post for you. The only thing I've done on the computer is today is click on the website for the American Cancer Ablation Center. See today's Day by Day cartoon for why.

Tomorrow is a trip to the park and possibly a visit to Mom, who had back surgery this morning. Dad says everything went well, so hopefully she'll have some relief from the pinched nerve that left her pretty much unable to stand or walk without severe pain.

Sounds bad, but don't forget...I've got a cold here folks. Sure, she might need a morphine drip, but I've been reduced to taking my pseudoephedrine every three hours instead of every four. And it was probably tougher to get my drugs. Target now has my decongestant of choice behind bars. You have to submit a plastic card with a picture of the product to the pharmacist who will then sell it to you. Thanks to the Minnesota legislature, my days as a major meth producer are over. Sleep well, Wright County.

Fortunately, Cub Foods hasn't gotten around to locking up my particular brand yet, so I slipped a bottle in between the oatmeal and the romain lettuce and the cashier scanned it and sent off down the conveyor belt as if it were merely a 4 oz. bottle of soy sauce. Thank goodness it is not in her job description to police the cold medicines. And I mean that sincerely.

Time to dope up and go to bed.
