Tonight's Sleep Sponsored by Nyquil

My wife decided to get me sick yesterday. She has had a nasty sinus infection for the last few days and I recently contracted it from her. Yesterday at work my head felt like it was going to explode and I was pretty achey.

With this pain nagging me, I decided to bring out the big guns. At about 7:30 PM I took two Nyquil geltabs and by 8:30 I was borderline comatose. It was wonderful. I slept so good last night. I try not to use medication very often, but when I do my body responds very well since it hasn't been conditioned.

This morning I finished listening to a podcast sermon on my iPod from Covenant Life Church. It was about the "Song of Mary." In essence it covered the importance of Mary and Elizabeth in the context of the Christmas story. It looked at this part of Mary's life from the eyes of a modern day teenager and how that would impact the life of a teenage mother with such unique circumstances. It was very eye-opening and gives me a new appreciation for Mary and Joseph. I still understand her role in relation to Jesus, but she did have a pretty monumental role that shows God's promise.

Tonight hopefully my wife and I can just take it easy. We plan on watching the Amazing Race finale and that's probably about it. Hope you all have a more productive night that us!
