I Shouldn’t Be Here
I should be at home in bed. After a restless night and what felt like a ridiculously long weekend, I am completely out of sorts. My prescription ran out late last week and, due to my stupidly optimistic reasoning, I didn't call my doctor because there was a chance I could find the paper prescription she wrote me two months ago. I've gone a day or two before, but never really experienced any withdrawal symptoms. Now I know they show up when approaching three missed doses.
I've been feeling increasingly dizzy and disconnected since Saturday night. Today I've added vertigo, a short attention span, and poor short term memory to the list. I know I need to pick up a few things at the hardware store, but I can remember more than one of them. Jon wanted something there too, but that's even more of a lost cause. Fortunately some of my memory is functional; I remembered to call my doctor and request a refill this morning. Barring any major problems, I'll be picking up the prescription after work and feeling better by the time I go to bed.
