Relative Normalcy

So it was back to work today, without the benefit of having taken a whole bunch of Benadryl to, well, "improve" is not the right word for what Benadryl does for analytical work. :) Progress was made, plans were mapped out, and now I just need to get some things working.

jeff_duntemann came by for dinner (with Carol joining us later) and that was a fine thing. And little girls were happy to see Uncle Jeff and Aunt Carol, so that was a good thing too. :)

I usually find Benadryl and work don't mix well.

In 1999, I had to spend six weeks north and east of Dallas (Plano TX specifically) for training. Polin in the air there left me with three choices: have my nose and mouth so itchy I couldn't concentrate, take some Cloro-Trimeton and risk falling asleep in class, or Benadryl and ensure I'd fall asleep. I chose the lesser of three evils and still dozed off occasionally.

Ah yes. I still remember the unwise decision a number of years ago to drive back to Cincinnati from Detroit after a con and after taking Benedryl. Best thing I can say is that I made it in one piece and stayed awake but just barely awake!
