Returning from Grand Cayman, I realized when I was in line in Miami at US Customs, that I had packed a bottle of over the counter cough medicine I got in Cayman in my suitcase. Watching the customs agent tear apart the backpack of the kid in front of me, I recalled that it contained morphine at a very high percentage.
I was soaking wet when they waived me through without even opening my bag.
Never got over it.
Every once in awhile my knee will REALLY hurt. I asked my doc during my last physical for a bottle of Hydrocodone or Oxy or whatever it is that he prescribed last time. He looked at the chart and said “Hmm - that was three years ago. Yeah, I can do that.”
But I also have an old bottle of my wife’s from 5 years ago too! I suppose I should dump those at least in a bottle with my name on it. I can just see getting pulled over for speeding and having “illegal narcotics” in my bag.
