It's recently been somewhat common that I forget to take my daily Singulair pill for allergies. My husband suggested to me that I set an alarm on my phone to remind me everyday, which has been working really well. Great. Problem solved...I thought...until today...
It was 3:00.
My alarm went off.
I took the pill out of my purse.
Into my right palm.
I tossed it in the direction of my open mouth.
I took a drink of water.
I didn't feel myself swallow anything.
Hmmm. Thinking back a few moments, I don't really remember anything hitting my tongue either. Hmmm.
I looked on the floor.
No pill.
I looked on my desk.
No pill.
My chair.
No pill.
I shook my shirt.
Nothing fell.
I checked my pockets--on the rare chance that the Singulair would have neatly rolled down my body, landing safely in my pocket. But no pill was there either.
So I guess it seems like the evidence is all for me unknowingly, yet successfully, swallowing it. Maybe the pill is just so small compared to the amount of water I drank that the pill was just easily washed down in a flood of Aquafina.
Or maybe my husband will tiredly inform me tomorrow morning that I was a snore machine all night....
I really like this Lauren, because I did the same thing today & everyday! The other day 5 pills, I found 4 & still worry if 5 went in my pill case. Today, " David did I take that pill?
ReplyDeleteThis is my fave of all your blog posts. I tried to take a benedryl the other day but I drank through a straw to wash it down, and I was like 90% sure that it had slipped through the straw into my can of coke, but when I dumped the coke out there was no trace of like pill-casings.
