Opium on Film "Dandy-Pacha" (France; 1908-1918)For the past week, I've drifted off to sleep with the help of a codeine cough syrup.
Sweet, coughless sleep. In my codeine stupor, I dream of Opium Dens. Luxurious beds draped in rich fabrics of velvet and silk. Reds, purples, deep blues. Beautiful women walking around in wraps of color holding trays. Trays of my sweet elixir.
A beauty holds out a crystal teaspoon full of cough syrup. Cherry or Orange?
I'm feeling so much better. If I could just get rid of this lingering hacking. Back to work tomorrow after an entire week on the couch. I bet my desk looks like a disaster area. But I'll be so happy to dive into it!

I think we need to go back to those simpler times!
Glad to hear you're feeling better, you look great!
Awesome dream! Cough syrup (especially with codeine) causes some of the coolest dreams ever. Good times!
Glad you're feeling better babe.
You are a Diva! A complete Diva and we are so glad that you are coming back to the land of the living. Of course, those dreams sure can carry a Girl far.

Hehe! Adore the pics! I hope you are feeling much much better.

Glad to hear that your feeling better. Is that you modeling in the second photo? ;)
Great dream! Velvet and opium.
I took cough syrup once. I hallucinated for about 5 hours, and not in a good way.
I got me some of that stuff. We are in love

I had a rather painful injury in my younger years. I was given 40 Demerol pills. A pill and two cans of beer right before bed produced a very satisfying slumber.
I am wondering if I can recreate that second photo for HNT ... hmmmmm ...
Glad you are feeling better!
I'm getting over Mucapalooza '09 myself. Good timing.
Cherry flavored 'Tuss (Robitussin) is my poison.
best wishes to you!!!!
YAY for recovery!
That looks like my house on Saturday morning.
I'm so glad you're feeling better, you must be if you're looking forward to going back to work! ;)
If I send my address, you send me the rest of that cough syrup....right? right? huh? LOL
Glad you are feeling better
Glad your on the mend.
Back when I was a smoker, I'd get bronchitis every year, regular as clockwork. Retire to bed with my cherry-flavored temptress and some antibiotics and kick back for a few days. Didn't even mind too much. Had it been more unpleasant, I probably would have quit sooner.
Nice post. Love that first picture.
so glad you're feeling better and are up off the couch.
Those photos made me giggle and think of "That's beautiful! What is that? Velvet?" from Coming to America...
I know...no one understands how my brain works, it's ok.
Just wait..
When you get back to the office and see the entire mess that's waiting for you, you'll wish that you could get back to doing nothing on the couch..
Mark my words!
I'm so glad that you're feeling a little better....it's that hacking that lasts forever and just makes you so tired.
Feel Better!
Glad you are on the upswing at least. I don't know what's worse. A dripping nose or hacking a lung up.
