No Wonder I Was Feeling "High" on Life

so here's the thing... i take my vitamin supplements everyday to make sure that I am getting all the vitamins and minerals that I need. 2 weeks ago, I was flying back to california for 5 days to pick up my car and drive it back to utah. while packing, i thought it would be a good idea to pack a little baggie full of my vitamins so I can take them with me and save space. so, i put 8 of each vitamin in this little clear baggie about the size of my palm. i thought i would play it safe and bring a few pain killers with me just in case i got a headache or anything along those lines, so i threw them in the little baggie as well. i missed a couple days, so i had plenty of vitamins left over in the little baggie, so i have just been taking them out of that until today when i finally finished them. you know, i'm a happy person and feel really great 99% of the time, but this past week, something's been different. I haven't been sore after tennis...but I wonder, why?? i mean, i should be. i usually am. so, it's morning and i'm having my oatmeal and vitamins when suddenly, i realize that i have a pain killer in my hand and not a multi-vitamin. i had forgotten that i placed multiple pain killers in the baggie. i quickly counted them and found that I only had... 3 left... and realized that I have been switching my multi-vitamin with a pain killer for the past week. oh my gosh!! how could I have done this, right? well let me show you a little picture. they look exactly the same, especially to a groggy, smerfy, blind, blonde girl in a dark kitchen in the morning.


yes. it is true. i wasn't high on life. i was legitimately high. i have been unknowingly drugging myself for a week and a half now. moral of the story, don't put your multi-vitamins in the same bag with your pain killers. things don't happen the way they should... you won't realize that you've painfully twisted your ankle in a game of tennis until after all of the pain killers wear off.
