Being a teenager

Blurb my brain:
Well after I posted the last one, I got seen by an awesome doctor. He asked if I wanted to skip work and he wrote me a pass for a day of work release. After all, you can't talk if you can't talk. Then as the nurse was getting the prescription written, my ear infection got significantly worse and I felt as though someone were stabbing my ear drum. She got me the drops to help kill the pain temporarily and I left the hospital.

Then I went to Walgreens to fill my prescription bc they were open at 1130. There was a woman at the pharmacy who had a pretty severe sunburn. The pharmacist was helping her choose the right kind of aloe and gives her a bottle of the green stuff. This dumb woman then proceeds to ask about other stupid questions about sunburns.

Meanwhile my ear is exploding. Or it sure felt like it. I start moaning, the pharmacist sees I am in pain, and shoos the idiot away. He begins filling my drugs and I remember Walgreens doesn't take my insurance. Well whatever, I am going to just eat the $30 and take the drugs. He fills them super fast, and I practically pop them in the store.

That was the last of the pain, but not the end of the story. This particular drug I am on for pain, it is an opiate.

Strange dreams.

But more than that, I am tired ALL THE TIME. I have slept about 14 hours a day since taking these things. I feel like a teenager again. All I want to do is sleep! The worst part is, i wake up with a headache because all I do is sleep.

Tomorrow I go back to work, and just hope that I can stay awake the whole time.
