Yes this is a cross-post from GAF. No I don't care I am watching motherfucking National Lampoons Vacation you tits.
As some people have probably noticed, I havenm't been as active the past week. This is because I have returned to my sorta home in PA in order to visit my mom since I moved away in 2004. To make up for being a dick about visiting in a timely manner, I have decided to stay for 2 weeks. I am now almost at the one week point.
My mom lives in the middle of nowhere in PA. I live within about 20 miles of Pottsville, best known for shitty lager Yuengling. Despite this fact, the last store that sells 6 packs and other beer in my small town closes at 8PM. And no, I'm not going into any of the scary bars. They tie my people to the backs of trucks around here.
Also, I don't drive, so I am pretty much completely stuck in this hellish, awful town. Electricity was out for about 3 hours today. My mom has DSL, but no wifi, and her sick, twisted ISP forces her to use Netscape. NETSCAPE! Have you people seen Netscape lately? It's like Firefox was born with extra chromosomes, and it's PISSED.
Anyway, due to the lack of beer avaialble during prime drinking time, I have sought solace in friendly arms, some of them have been hiding in the cupboards since before I moved. Yes, my friends, meet my Over the Counter Saviours:
This is some Ghetto NyQuil. It gets the job done. I just put down the last two fingers of this bottle and I was a-thirstin' for more. Luckily, under the sink in my old bathroom, I found a, well, elderly cousin:
The elderly cousin being the lovely jar on the left. This bottle is clearly old. As in years old. The syrup was thicker than the fresher offering in the first picture, but it seemed to pack the necessary kick. It is worth noting that, yes, the color has just about completely faded from the label. No, that did not prevent me from finishing the bottle. Also in this family photo, you can see a box of NyQuil gelcaps that I finished off tonite. I had that box for three days and I think it had 20 pills in it. I have procured 4 more from another bathroom.
You can also see a box of DayQuil there. This is of note to me because:
It is one of the older boxes of the crystal meth kind of DayQuil. They don't sell this in many places in WA anymore, and I'm not sure if they still plan on even manufacturing it on a nationwide scale for much longer. While procuring supplies earlier this week, I noticed they only had the non-methy variety.
Either way, I am in hell and I am praying for a quick death. They don't even have Olde English here. I just want to go back to Bellevue
