The D in Claritin D should stand for Don't take this.

I was up all frigging night. I knew better than to take it in the afternoon, but for some idiotic reason, I did it anyway. I forgot what it is like to be awake, but doped up and exhausted, at 3 a.m. And at 4.a, for that matter. Now I am dead, of course. I have ten thousand things to do. I already sucked down a 20 ounce Coke and I am sure more will follow. I may even resort to Code Red which tastes like cough syrup.
