another heady post

Music: Pinback: blue screen life (2001)Per the request of Debbalicious, this post is mostly to get rid of the old man's rotting face photo two posts ago. While I'm at it, though, I want to share that this morning I awoke to a mucus fiesta in my head! I was a bone-i-fied blockhead, like, I had this vision of thought that the other side of my face was one big, undifferentiated slab of booger yuckiness.

I was a blockhead yesterday too, and last night I had a toddy before I went to bed (that is, a shot of whiskey, a shot of lemon juice, and a tablespoon--ok, two tablespoons--of honey, topped off with piping hot water). This depressed me because this "remedy" is high in carbs and I started a low carb diet to lose last semester's six pounds on Monday (and I was doing so good!). Stupid cold. Anyway, I mention the toddy because it works! Alas, I could not have a toddy this morning as that would not be good for the 9:00 a.m. meeting (two more meetings to go, too).

So, as the office execs were listening to me hack and snort and blow this morning, they recommended Mucinex. Said it worked wonders. Said the stuff was magical. On the way home for lunch (and a load of laundry--guests arrive tonight) I picked up some Mucinex. It was twelve freakin' dollars! I kept looking for that New Jersey working class booger cartoon on the carton, but the Mucinex box doesn’t have that guy. Once I stopped looking for the working class booger (WCB) I found the box.

I'm now back in the office in preparation for meeting number two. Oh my god: the Mucinex works great! I'm clear, not runny! No cough. It's expensive, but that stuff is AMAZING! Joshie Juice endorses the Mucinex. It de-solidfies his juices. Yup.
