Monday afternoon, I found a cough drop at the bottom of my purse. I was bored and it was the yummy kind (a raspberry/honey Ricola), so I popped it in my mouth. Within an hour I noticed a tickle in my throat. The tickle has become a scratch, and now my nose is running and it’s all sort of sad and pathetic.
…and mysterious. I think that cough drop gave me a cold. That’s one way to keep customers coming back, right?
