Pssst... Wanna score some Sudafed?

First some background info:
For some darn reason, I've had several colds in the last couple of months. Don't know why. Hope it's just coincidence. So here I am with another one - and on my vacation - dammit! I'll spare you the details, but as of last night it's obvious that I have a sinus infection. So I'm hanging around the hosue AGAIN today to try and shake this thing instead of being out in the beautiful weather. I've been using up all my supplies of NyQuil, DayQuil, Benadryl etc... I try to keep this stuff on hand so that if I do get sick, I won't have to run out to the store when I feel like crap. Unfortunately, the last of the DayQuil went last night.

So I go to the store today. I get some NyQuil, DayQuil, Benadryl, Mucinex. All the large sizes so I have enough to get me through this (I hope) and have some on hand. The cashier is ringing me up and then has to call the manager over for an override. Why the override? Because you can't buy more than two cold medicines at a time. That's right - I'm not smart enough to do anything on my own, I now need the grocery store telling me what I can buy and how much! GRRRRRRRRR

So there goes my plan to start up my internation drug pusher ring of cold medicines to kids. I had everything all lined up too. I was gonna hang out in school yards and sell some cold medicine to unsuspecting children - taking their milk money! PSST! Hey kid - I got some shit that will keep you from sneezing all day - check it out! PSST! Hey little girl - have a hit of this. You won't be able to cough for hours. You see - I'd start them on the light stuff like Sudafed and Dimetapp. Then work them up to the heavy duty stuff like Robitussin and Coricidrin D. That's when you get them hooked and make all your money!

So what's next? Only two rolls of toilet paper at a time? After all, maybe I'm trying to shit myself to death! Maybe they should only sell boneless chicken. After all - people have been known to choke on chicken bones and die. Let's only sell 3 bottles of water at a time too. That way I can't drown myself in the bathtub with it.

Freaking incredible...

That's crazy.

"Can I see your ID for that cold medicine?"

I think the drug dealers can use OTC medicines to make meth. So they figure if you buy more than a few, you might be trying to make illegal drugs. I'd think you would need more than two packs of cold medicine to do that. Once again, the government stepping in to regulate everything.

Maybe I need to submit a phlegm sample to prove my need.
