  • I'm currently under a short-term drug regimen to inhibit my continuing irritation from and (over)reaction to a flea-biting attack upon arms, torso, legs, etc. that I suffered two weeks ago as I lay in a field of uncut grass under the Sun for half an hour or so.  


    I should have known better than to lay in that uncut grass, but I did so desperately in response to an overwhleming sense of achiness, lightheadness, dizziness, and general weakness that suddenly gripped me after running just a couple of miles in Dreamland (Lake View) Cemetery.


    At the time, I assumed that I was suffering a rapid onset of a bout of flu.  I was wrong.  Dehydration had caught up with me. The fact that I had run about 30 miles in 5 days and had been drinking only coffee, diet cokes, and beer pretty much accounted for my demise.


    So now I'm consciously drinking more water and gatorade. 


    And taking a glucocorticoid (adrenocortical steroid) to heal from the biting fleas.


    So this particular medication has an unusual precaution.  But I don't know how to take it:


    "Psychic derangements may appear ranging from euphoria, insomnia, mood swings, personality changes and severe depression, to frank psychotic manifestations."


    Actually, I could use a good dose of euphoria right now.


    By the way, has anyone noticed anything strange about me lately?  Doesn't hurt to ask.  Well, actually it does hurt, but who cares?  In any case, your answers don't matter to me.  But I'm still interested.  At least I was when I started this paragraph with that silly question up above.  What was I thinking?  Never mind ... *focuses on euphoria*
