It's 2 am and . . .

markem · 07-09-2012, 03:02 AM

and I have a bulging disc.

I'm on etodolac, methocarbamol and vododin. Unfortunately, the vidocin I took at bedtime didn't take hold, so I took another. An extra dose of vicodin for me means insomnia. I've been doing some very good tequila to try to induce drowsiness, but it isn't working, although the omission gluten free pale ale did the trick yesterday.

Mind you, I am on the west coast, so there could be people back east getting ready for the gym or work.

But, what do you do to kill time at 2am when you can't hit the after hours clubs (too many "no drive" meds in my system right now)?

I did grab an 08 sir winston a little while ago and smoked on the patio under the stars, but the meds throw off my palette so I am not interested in doing more of that.

In a sense, this is a post that says, "please entertain me" even though I should be able to do that at my age. The muscle relaxants make the obvious "entertainment" moot.

Ha! TMI, but drug and alcohol induced TMI.

I thought of typing a long winded post, and I did, but my inevitable point and response amounted to....Drink more. Alcohol ALWAYS passes the time.

Thanks, Bill! Glad you didn't point me to a banter thread.

At least you are getting paid. I have had too much tequila to charge my clients.

Thanks, Greg! I can do about 20 feet before I want to collapse. Maybe my definition of long is different from yours right now.

Hope you get better soon Mark -- put Zebo to work taking care of you!

irratebass · 07-09-2012, 07:45 AM

Sorry your back hurts, you could throw in a boring movie or something on tv, that with the alcohol might make you pass out.

Get better soon man

Do you play any Video Games? Buying something like Modern Warfare 3 or NCAA 13 Football will kill lots of time!
