I learned an important little lesson this weekend.

Codeine, when taken by epileptics, has about the same effect as meth. I was using Kirsten's cough syrup, and then couldn't sleep. For two days.

Hmm.. Maybe I should go score some meth so I can sleep...

The weirdest effet I've had from a drug is Prednisone. A common steroid given for many reasons, I get the usual side effects, moodiness, muscle cramps and the like. I also crave salsa. Seriously, I like the stuff, but when on Pred I will sit and eat jars with a spoon. I will eat myself sick, and then look for more.

hmmm... could you be craving the capusin? (sp?) I know there's ointments that contain it for muscle problems, or just eat some habenero's (I'm sure I spelled that one wrong, but you know what I mean).
