I'm taking all sorts of over the counter medicine to kick this cold/flu thing I've got going on. Tom bought these zinc tablets that dissolve on your tongue but taste like old pennies. After 2 seconds I spit it out. Tom hands me another one and I tell him that I'll just swallow it whole cuz I can't handle the taste. He says, "Just suck it, but don't swallow."
Hmm. Haven't heard that in a while.
While I'm upstairs sucking, he's downstairs watching the Bears game and every once in a while he lets out a Tourette's like yell of disgust and it makes me laugh so hard that I may or may not have peed my pants a little. No more liquids for me.
You are so funny!
ReplyDeleteWas that a game or what!? I was right there with Tom. I even had the boys goin' with me! You know how much A-man luuuurves da football.
ReplyDeletePlease share the story about why you know what old pennies taste like. Are they worse than new pennies?
ReplyDeleteI hate dribbling when I'm sick!
ReplyDeleteIs there a reason we have NO control over this while we are sick?
The slightness cough or sneeze and I'm an infant again. Boo
TMI? hahaha
Oh my gosh - you hit the nail on the head! Those zinc lozenges taste exactly like old pennies! I HATE those things!!
