Last night I could not sleep; I tossed and turned for hours. I searched everywhere for sleeping pills. I checked every handbag I have carried in the last six months. I checked in all my secret drug caches. None. Then I remembered Truck's medicine cabinet. Yes, my dog has his own medicine cabinet. He is allergic to everything and I have stash of drugs for emergencies. When Truck breaks out in hives, I have to shove 4 Benadryl down his throat to hold him over until I can get him to the dog hospital. Last night I stole my dog's Benadryl so I could go to sleep.

I felt so bad that I stopped on my way to work to replace Truck's medicine and buy myself some over-the-counter sleeping pills until I can get some real drugs.
