now that's old.

The past week, I have been deathly ill. I've had some weird virus in my muscles and besides that I have a huge ulcer on my throat! So, last night I went to my parents house. Growing up, as rare as it was, whenever someone had an ulcer my dad would pull out this bottle of what we called "red stuff" I think it's really like methyolade?(no clue how you spell or pronounce it.) Anyway, it was suppose to cure an ulcer. So you put it on the ulcer, it burns a minute, then should help it go away. Well, sure enough dad says "you need to put the red stuff on it!" I say... well first of all I went to get some yesterday and couldn't find it. I don't think they make it anymore, and come to think of it, growing up I only remember that one bottle. If you find it I'm checking the expiration, because that thing has got to be expired! Sure enough we found it.... get ready for this..... it was expired.... in JULY 1982!!! ok, this means I was 2 months old when it expired and this means it's been expired for 27 years!!! I just had to take a picture. We surely couldn't through this bottle out, just for memories sake.
