It's the end of the day. Usually I have a push to finish something I'm working on or I'm looking forward to some creative computer loafing. Right now, my eyeballs are dry and fuzzy and kind of red looking. My current ear infection is being faught with an interesting variety of biological tactics this time. This morning I was manic and wired, now I'm twitchy and tired.
I hope we settle on near dead by bed time, because last night's dreamscape was like being trapped in the REM equivalent of a Jane Fonda exercise tape. It could have been fun if you didn't want to throw rotten fruit at the players. Hmm... hillbilly heroin.
Huh, what? Well, the ear canal hasn't closed yet, thank gods. But, if it does, the pain will climb to a level way beyond that of mere over the counter crap. So, when the nice PA asked if I thought I'd need something for the pain, I said, "hell, yes, I'll take a double."
Unless you're missing a limb, that usually means acetaminophen and codeine, which is often enough to chase away the pain pookas. This time I had two surprises. The pills are percocets, enough to pound the pookas into a pleasant pass out. The bottle also mentions oxycodone. Isn't that the pain killer that prick Rush is addicted too?
Turns out that oxycodone and acetaminophen is percocet ( and roxicet, and few others ). This level of pain killers is apparently referred to as "hillbilly heroin" when sold illegally. Hillbilly crack is methamphetamine. I didn't know this until I read the bottle an got curious. Sometimes I think I'm too curious. Oh well, at least my eyeballs didn't feel fuzzy for a while. Doctor tomorrow.
