Well, about two hours ago I took some cold and sinus medicine. I don't normally take that stuff; the pseudo-ephedrine in it makes me feel all jittery and wired. Today I had a killer sinus headache, though, so I dug through the kitchen cabinet and found some.
I'm starting to think I've been too harsh on the whole taking-drugs-to-feel-better thing. Not only is my sinus headache (mostly) gone, but I had a burst of energy and cleaned up the kitchen. The downside is I'm incredibly thirsty. That's a small price to pay, I suppose, for pain-free energy.
Better living through chemistry, indeed!
