Buzzed.

[icarus]

I have a million things I must do, a half a million I've promised to do, and another dozen or so that are unimportant but I'd like to do and would probably do first if I had the mind to do so.

Instead, I am aimlessly dinking around on the internet. Why?

Because I am high.

Alas, it is from a steroid inhaler which (apparently) makes me buzzed for three hours and counting, a small smile plastered to my face, and the attention span of gnat. And bizarre floaty mood swings, let's not forget the floaty mood swings.

"Oh, here's an article on Bush... oh this is bad, bad..." *goes into vague annoyance-like anger*

"Hmm, a post about turning a story into 128 pt. font, how cute..." *inane moment of disproportionate lingering glee*

"Oh dear, such and so hasn't emailed me..." *vague, fugue-like depression*

Why do people get high deliberately? I feel unproductive.

I'm better at math when I'm high, but I mean high as in on amps, as opposed to, like, painkillers or pot. Not that I've done that in years, because I am a good boy. *handwavy* Anyway, yeah, being high is usually not so productive, unless you are at least somewhat ADD and take uppers.

(Ahaha my Alice icon is ironically appropriate!)

I now know why the football champ with asthma always seemed a buzzy and out of it. Yeah, wow, great way to spend precious minutes. *flies*

This solves the question of why people take the drug worst for them. If I had a choice, despite the fact that, yes, hyper is my middle name, I would pick the drug that made me learn 10 impossible things before breakfast and not this floaty buzzy stuff.

I'm looking at this thing wondering if there's an inhaler that's more like an upper, and less like, hmmm, I'm sniffing glue.
