Yesterday morning I started to get a bit sneezy and snotty, which I should have expected after gleefully declaring on Friday that nothing was messing with my allergies. Diana suggested a Zyrtec, which she consumes like candy because of her crazy year-round allergy issues. As a popular 24-hour solution, you know, it'd be good for me. I was worried about the sleepy factor though, as I took one up at Kara's place last fall and passed out.
Less than an hour after taking it, I was passed out on the couch, sleeping hard. About 90 minutes later, she woke me up to go to a grad party out in Toledo. About half way through that drive, I fell asleep again. I didn't pass out drooling in a corner at the party, but I wasn't particularly alert. I managed to stay awake the whole drive home, listening to the Cavs begin to lose, and eventually came to bed just after midnight. I got up at 9:30, passed out on the couch, and slept two more hours.
"May" cause drowsiness? How about, "Will put your ass down for the next day?"
Reminds me of Dennis Leary's commentary on taking NyQuil:
"The back of the box should say 'Don't make any fucking plans.'"
