One of my lovely doctors gives me Cox 2 NSAID samples because its not on my insurance company's formulary. Every month or two, I go to their office to pick them up. The office is in a medical building near a large teaching hospital, in a semi-iffy neighborhood. I park on the neighborhood streets because I am cheap, not to mention still unemployed. Usually the samples are in a brown bag and I can walk around without everyone seeing that I have hundreds of dollars of pills in my hands. Occasionally they are in a large clear ziplock baggy. This time they were like this:
Someone obviously had a sense of humor that morning. On the plus side I had lots of room in the elevator and no one came near me walking back to my car.

Mood: still dark with perhaps the illusion of a pinprick of possible light at the end of the tunnel, though its probably a train.

That's actually pretty clever. Nobody will try to steal your drugs from you in that bag. I might check into carrying my wallet in one of those.
You may have this one, I am sure I can get more if I need one.
That is funny! My most recent samples from the doctor came in a bag that said "Levitra."
Adela-
LOL, at least it wasn't the better known one, Viagra. I think most doctors have a very peculiar sense of humor, if they have one at all.
interesting name change, have you had a rebirth?
Susan,
Not precisely. I just thought long and hard about privacy issues, and a little about personal safety. I've been online for over a decade, and there were a lot of angles to consider. In the end I decided the simplest thing was to change my display name, and not discuss it on my own blog.
I got my Haz Mat bag. Thanks! I think I'll use it as a purse for Halloween. :)
