a house full of condiments and no food;

[rocknload]

It's half past one, my head's fucking killing me and my house is crawling with people. I don't even know who lives here, who practically lives here and who's just visiting. I'm not actually kidding.

My mom just dreamed that Nick got stabbed, what the hell?

... Ahahaha, the DVD menu for Fight Club says I AM JACK'S MOVIE. Cute.

Edit: Headache complaint earlier seems like it might have been hyperbole or something, I don't remember, but now, now it's totally true, I mean, seriously, ow.

I think I'll lose.

Pessimism.

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

Realism. Last time I tried chemical warfare against my own body, when I finally managed to defeat every symptom, I realized that I was still the loser.

[unicorn]

But in that situation, you were a pain-free loser.

I took too many sleeping pills, which made me sleep, but the next day, made me sick, disoriented, and dizzy. I had to drive, so I proceeded to drink a fuckton of caffeine, which woke me up but gave me a horrible headache and I felt pretty hungover, so then I had to take pain medication to deal with that. When I was done, I felt like I'd achieved a reasonable approximation to my normal self, but it was NOT the same.

I've managed to successfully avoid medication of any sort since that, actually! Until now. Damn.

[unicorn]

...why did you take TOO MANY.

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

I didn't know it was too many until I was struck with those side effects!

[unicorn]

Aren't most sleeping pills prescribed. With the dose you should take on the label.

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

Well. Yes. But it wasn't working and I was frustrated.

[unicorn]

...I think I remember this whole thing. Sigh.

Setine's right, you should drink water!

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

It turns out the medication doesn't really work on me, which apparently isn't all that unusual, and my insomnia is kind of outside of my control anyway! So it doesn't matter.

Why doesn't milk count, I just had like three glasses.

[unicorn]

Milk does hydrate you, I'm pretty sure Setine is wrong. It just makes you thirsty at the same time.

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

Ahaha, wrong! WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG.

I mean. I do feel better! I think. Maybe.

[shinra-pwnsjoo.livejournal.com]

Cheat! With medicine.

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

I did! It mostly worked, but I can still feel it. Lurking. Waiting for the pills to wear off.

[shinra-pwnsjoo.livejournal.com]

HAVE YOU TRIED DRINKING WATER?

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

NO, ACTUALLY.

[shinra-pwnsjoo.livejournal.com]

RE-HYDRATE YOURSELF.

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

DOES MILK COUNT?

[shinra-pwnsjoo.livejournal.com]

MILK MAKES IT WORSE.

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

YOU'RE JUST MAKING THAT UP.

[shinra-pwnsjoo.livejournal.com]

IT ACTUALLY MAKES YOU MORE THIRSTY.

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

BULLSHIT. YOU'RE A LIAR.

[shinra-pwnsjoo.livejournal.com]

NO, I JUST KNOW THIS FROM EXPERIENCE.

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

MILK IS AWESOME. IT WOULDN'T DO THAT TO ME.
