Poor, Poor, Pitiful Me

Aaron dared me to blog about this.

For the past few weeks, my Monday shot symptoms have been increasingly better - now that I bought Ibuprofen that actually has an expiration date that is valid! I am just a little sleepy.

Well, today I took the Ibuprofen bottle out of the cabinet and took them before I got my shot. I took them every 4 hours. 4 at a time, like usual. I got the chills and fever - really bad! I even got an upset stomach - flu-like symptoms. Horrible!!!! My stomach was cramping and everything!

I was checking my email here in the kitchen, and Aaron looks at the bottle on the counter and reads the label.
"Who's been taking laxatives?"

???!!!!!!

That's the thing about buying generic pharmacuticals at Target...they all look the same, except for the color writing on the bottles. And, if you're not careful...

Well, it makes for a pretty funny story, at least. What a dork!
