strange statement?
strange thought?
.
Not really.
I'm having these crazy pangs of hunger. The ravishing ones where no matter how much food you fill the stomach cavity with, it still seems hollow. Not that I do. Stuff food down, I meant.
.
Each time, the clock and logic overrules the cannibalistic urge.
10:03 am. 11:42 am. 2:16 pm. 4:24 pm.
How can one possibly be hungry having chow-ed down food mere hours before?
.
The pang remains.
The emptiness is unmistakable.
The side hurts. Even the fatty residues along the lower abdominal area (that wasn't there 6 months ago) hurts. Standing hurts. Sitting hurts. Lying hurts. Crapping hurts. It just plain hurts.
.
Could it be I am just plain hungry? Clock and logic aside?
Or is it gastritis?
My peptic ulcers at it again?
Laxatives???
.
Laxatives!
GOD. Where is that piece of paper? You know, the one that comes with the laxative tube. Can it be overdose? Abuse? b..b..but I took only 2 teeny weeny ones as recommended.
Well, it did cross my mind:
.
Found paper!

"just these 2 tiny things can make a difference? hmmmmmmm... should I take more? No. No. Lemme try with 2 as prescribed. And see."
.Found paper!
- tablets should be taken at night.
- tablets should not be taken together with milk or antacids.
- it is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to bisacodyl or any other component of the product.
- chronic overdose may cause chronic diarrhea, abdominal pain, hypokalaemia, secondary hyperaldosteronism, metabolic alkalosis ...

SPEAK ENGLISH!
For point 1- ...
Dear Mr. Manufacturer, care to say "1-2 tab at night only" rather than "1-2 tab daily"?????!? (The morons we live with in this world! I tell ya.)
.
Now, point 2- enraged me to the point of involuntary muscular spasms! I take loads of milk. I love milk. I drown most things down with milk in the absence of coffee. And now you tell me on this lousy piece of paper over font size 5 that milk and laxatives don't mix? Read the ( ) above ^.
.
As for point 3- and 4- ...err... who cares?!?
Firstly, WTF are you saying?
Second, I am still mad about point 2- and yes, I lost 3 hours of precious sleep due to timing issues on Tuesday (refer to point 1-).
.
But what's saddest is: at the rate I react to meds including plain ol' regular OTC is incredible. Unacceptable.

What should I do? What should I do? What should I do?
.So while all of the above is happening and me shifting positions every so often hoping to find one where I feel least discomfort { ping! } I thought of "The Second Bakery Attack" :
.
... the RemingtonWhat was she doing with a Remington?
He seemed calm enough with the Remington surprise. hmmmmmmmm... would anyone I live with { if I do } be that calm?
... the would be eventual mucked-up accounts if 30 burgers went missing instead of the cash register.
.
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... are people that calm?
I dunno. Never been in such a situation with an automatic shotgun barrel in my face. Though mom has experienced two machetes yielding man at the front of our gates robbing her in day light 2 days ago.
.
... and eventually oreeee . oreos . ori . fixation with naoko . toru . midori . hence, the blog's title. aree?
