I am dumb.
I was sick, sick, sick this weekend.
Not as sick as saratinia was last week, but still pretty freaking miserable.
And I made myself even more miserable.
I bought No Name Extra Strength Sinus Medication. When I buy No Name drugs, I usually just make sure that the medicinal ingredients and amounts are the same as the name brand version. It was the same stuff as Tylenol for Sinus, so I bought it.
I read how much to take and how often, but I didn't quite do all my research.
It contains Pseudoephedrine Hydrochloride, which is a stimulant. The packaging actually says "Reduce dosage if nervousness or sleeplessness occurs." Wish I'd read that before last night. 40 minutes of sleep, woken by nightmares. I ended up on the bathroom floor (the only room in the house with locking doors) trying to calm down. When I finally cleared my head, I was totally jittery and paced for about an hour.
I got about 3 hours of sleep total last night.
No more non drowsy Extra Strength Sinus Medication after 4 pm for me.

According to the engineer, "we knew it was going to be horrible when we blew the horn and she didn't move."
Dad and Adam (okay, all of us) found that story kind of funny, in that horrific, why would they print that? kind of way. It got even funnier when I said, "We really should stop laughing. I mean, a few years from now, it'll be Dad dead in a freak accident and some other family laughing about what a moron he is!"
So horrific, yes, but still, good times!
