Whisky A Go Go
I have a bit of a quandary today.
I woke up with a rather sore throat this morning and over the course of the day it has got progressively worse. It’s hot, sore and when I swallow I feel as if it would be less painful to swallow rusty nails. Oh yes, it’s that bad. Now, in my experience, the best way to deal with this type of sore throat is to drink lots of whisky. Obviously only for its medicinal properties you understand. It will leave you with an incredible hangover but your throat will have returned to its senses or will at least have been numbed into the never never until it does. However I am going to a rather important meeting this evening where decorum and probably abstinence is everything. So what do I do? Do I turn up unable to talk lest I start another battle between the germs in my throat and my pain receptors or do I turn up slurring my speech, smelling strongly of whisky but free from pain?
I must make a decision soon because the pain is increasing and those pain receptors canna’ take much more captain!
