A small note on cough drops

In case I haven't mentioned it before: I think I might be sick. As in, strept throat. Which means every time I try to yawn, cough, swallow, and at some times talk, it hurts. Which means I'm sucking down cough drops like there's no tomorrow.

And for this bag, there might not be.

The problem is, popping them like they're candy is wreaking havoc on my supply. In fact, I've run out.

Well, not of all of them. Just the good kind.

You see, I like the Ricola Honey Lemon ones... they just taste so smooth and natural, and are more for sore throat than coughing. Which is what I need. Unfortunately, they're all gone.

So I'm stuck with the Halls 3-pack from Costco. The flavors? Cherry, and Honey Lemon.

You might be thinking "Well that's okay, you still have your Honey Lemon, and pain relief, why are you complaining?" That would be because I DON'T LIKE HALLS HONEY LEMON. Don't ask me why. I don't know. I'm not a psyciatrist.

Imagine this: you reach into your pocket full of cough drops, fully expecting another burst of cherry flavoring to fill your mouth; not exactly what you want, but you're making the most of what's available to you. You don't pay attention whe you take off the wrapper; you can open these things with one hand in the dark if you have to. You pop it into your mouth, and your cruelly betrayed tongue is burned with the combination of lemon and mynthol.

Yeah, that just happened to me a little while ago. Needless to say, I'm slightly upset.

And I still don't know where the glitter came from, but it's not coming off. I tried.

Over and out.

EDIT: I now have the Ricola Honey Lemon cough drops. All is well, folks.
