Feh, I feel like crap. Monday night I took a couple “Nighttime Cold Remedy” pills and slept pretty well. I figured they worked so well at night, they ought to work pretty well during the day. Well, yes and no. I didn't feel bad, per se, but I also couldn't stay awake. “May cause drowsiness” is marketing speak for “This stuff is going to knock you right the hell out!” I literally woke up at my desk a few times yesterday and had no idea where I was. It wasn't cool. Well, it was kind of cool in that, “Woo hoo! I'm ‘stoned’ at work!” sort of way, but it would have been bad if someone had needed me. At one point I thought about calling mom to come get me! I didn't and fought through it. Now I'm sitting here feeling the ravages of this cold, or flu, or whatever the hell I've got. I think I'm on the downhill side because the cough isn't as bad as it has been. Well, I went and did a “dumb” thing the other day. By paying all my bills, I'm now broke-assed broke until the first. Yeah, go ahead and do the math. A week and a half I have to get through with zero money. I may have to break down and mooch some off of mom so I can eat lunch next week. Fortunately, a group needed help setting up and they gave me one of their boxed lunches today. Oh well, I can afford to miss a meal or two. The weekend is what is going to suck. Aw crap! I just remembered my friend from college, Navajo, is coming to town this weekend. Shite! Well, looks like I definitely will be mooching some money from mom. I hate going to her for money. Crap crap crapity crap crap! Well, I have to take a projector to someone and talking to y'all has done nothing but depress me. I think I'll call it a rant.
