I’ve thought of myself as semi-decently prepared. I could weather a power outage for a couple days and come out on the other side without too much wear and tear, I can change the tires on my car, etc.

My medicine cabinet? Um, not so much ready for prime time. Yesterday’s not feeling so great that I had written off to “too much fun” Thursday evening kept getting worse throughout the day to where I finally admitted to myself last night that I have a wicked ugly chest cold. The works - coughing, sneezing, too hot, too cold, everything hurts.

It’s not that I have a cabinetful of expired meds, it’s that I have NO meds besides Advil, (my normal cureall) and it just ain’t cutting it. No cough syrup, DayQuil, NyQuil, Valium, Vicodin, or any other fun pharmaceutical that might make me feel slightly less like death. And when you feel like death, the last thing you really want to do is head out into the big wide world and hunt down meds.

So, don’t be an idiot like me and go check your med supply now.
