Pass the Garlic

I had good hair today. :P

So I paid a visit to the pharmiscist. I asked him if there was something he could recommend for me to take that wouldn't knock me on my butt while I am trying to get through the day and work. He said that those daytime meds shouldn't make me sleepy. I told him that they do, anyway. I have a very low tolerence to any medication. He said I was wrong, all the while slightly chuckling to himself, (obviously he is fully aware of my bodies tolerence. *insert eye roll*) and that the daytime meds don't contain antihistamine and therefore wouldn't make me sleepy. I asked how they could clear my head without any antihistamine? "Oh" he said "They have another ingredient that isn't drug related." He handed me some generic daytime cold medication, I read the box and asked "So Pseudoephedrine is an all natural product?"

Ugh...

Slug bug. This is a daily game in my car. Well, when my daughter is present. Although, I do find myself, while driving about town, saving them up for when she is with me. On the way home today, I saw one just ahead of us, on the Expressway. I quickly slugged her leg and called silver slug bug. She said "No Mom...it is white. SLUG BUG White!" and promptly slugged me on my arm. As we got closer, I noticed that it wasn't white at all...but a light shade of blue. I said "HA! It isn't white either it is Blue. SLUG BUG Blue!" and slugged her in the leg. "No MOM! It is White! SLUG BUG White!" Knuckle punch to my arm...again. We got even closer...only to see that I was right, the second time, and it was a light blue. I said "See..it IS Light Blue. SLUG BUG!" Got her leg. She says..."You didn't call color! SLUG BUG Light Blue!" her punches come harder and harder.... Needless to say, this continued all the way home. Neither one of us would let the other have the last punch. Sometimes, I understand why my friend Christine asks which one of us (Rachel or myself) is the parent.
