You know what really grinds my gears?

Only thing I've ever had was children's liquid Benadryl, and it stays in my system for well over 12 hours. Keeps me conked for quite some time.

I don't feel tired from the medicine, but second I look in mirror, looks like I hadn't slept in days lol

The thing that bugs me about sleep aids is I can feel them working physically, but my mind is still active. It's rough when you feel the effects but can't shut down all the way

I've got a high tolerance for pretty much everything I've put in my system. The one surgery I've had they had to use almost double the dose of what they normally have to to put a patient out. Then had to use more of the reversal drug to bring me back awake.

Night time cold meds don't do anything for me. I feel like I'd have to OD on a bottle for it to put me to sleep.

Sound like my wife Mabster. I always tell her to let doctor's know that her body reacts differently then most to medicines/procedures like that.

Only thing I ever take is NyQuil when I'm stuffed up. Works like a charm.

One thing that doesn't affect me is caffeine. I can drink a cup of coffee or a 20oz Mtn Dew (lol Mtn) and go right to sleep.

I loved the relaxer they gave me when I pulled a muscle in my back last month. The doctor said it will make you sleepy... funny! I got the pain relief and never felt drowsy. Which is great given I fall asleep way too early. That has to be the best medicine I've ever had. Actually does what it should without any detriments.

The gear grinder was hurting my back in the first place because that was a painful few hours until I got to the doctor and had the prescription filled.

End of long weekend.

It revolved mostly around playoff baseball for majority of it which was nice, but now that weekend itself over, sucks getting back into regular routine again. Even more so cause weather starts getting colder and colder,and days get darker faster.

Nice to get away from things for awhile, but then once reality comes right back, it sucks.

Forget a long weekend. End of the weekend. Period. I'm so tired of going into work. If I walked out tomorrow the place would fall apart and I sure don't get a lot to show for that these days. They're going to drive me insane here soon.
