I have found the topical medication from Hades. It's called Zilactin.
For the last, oh, 4 days or so, I've had this canker sore the size of Jupiter in the inside of my lip. Because it's in the most convenient spot, I can feel it's huge, ouchiness every time I twitch. This being the case, I have been prone to complain about it- which was my first mistake.
That first mistake led to another, which mistakes tend to do. My complaining led to the referral of a medicine.
"It'll stop it from hurting!" They said.
Yeah, sure. Sure. The reasoning for it's effectiveness in that category is that it replaces the cold sore hurt with something much, much worse: Alcohol burn! In the mouth!
You can imagine my surprise when I put the gel-from-'ell on my lip expecting it to be an anesthetic, when really, it was a dollop of fire and brimstone!
So now, I have two sores. The original canker sore, and the burn on top of it.
Curse you Zilactin. Curse you.
Happiness is...
~ Watching friends play at open mic night at the Velour
~ Swinging on swings on an uncommonly warm winter night
~ The prospects of having an adventure with an old friend
~ Knowing what Step 2 and 3 are! (To be revealed soon!)
~ Just winging it
~ Seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, though quite distant

Shouldn't you be cursing the nut who recommended it to you?
They were only trying to help...
And it's much more fun to be mad at objects that don't have feelings. For instance, when you're driving, you tend to yell obscenities to the car in front of you, not the driver. Or at least, I do.
But it would be more logical to be upset at the person, wouldn't it? I guess I just don't operate logically.
You should just be more careful about who you're smooching. herpes is for life tiff.
