Lloyd has a concert coming up, and we’re trying like mad to keep him healthy until then. I’ve been sleeping on the sofa since Thanksgiving, which has it’s ups and downs. Wait – only downs. Downs like freaking out when the ice maker crashes a load of ice into the bin, or hearing the heating vents *pop* when they cool down, or hearing some wild animal make snorting sounds just as I’m dropping off. Oh, wait… that’s me…
Anyway, I connived Lloyd into buying some snake oil powder and we’ve been taking it twice a day. It’s the Emergen-C brand, and each dose has vitamins, zinc and ground unicorn hooves – guaranteed to make you healthy. The kicker is how much vitamin C it has: One thousand milligrams! That is 1,667% of your RDA! Honestly?!?!? Don’t they know I’m just going to pee that out? It is grabbing germs as it passes through?
Whatever. *cough cough cough*
The flavor is ‘Ruby Lemon Honey’. It is terrible. I couldn’t believe how bad it was so I googled it, and many are in agreement. The other flavors – raspberry, orange – are good, but as one reviewer said, “It tastes like propane smells.”
