What is extra extra strength ibuprofen?? Is it just 800 mg that you take on of every 8 hours?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Probably. That's the prescription dose, not to exceed 2400 in 24 hours.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
The prescription I got is 600 mg, with confusing instructions. First part says take 3 times a day for 5 days, but the rest says something else.I'll take one at bed time and one in the morning and see how it goes.

The general rule is 200 mg Ibuprofen per every 2 hours (anything less than 600 mg per dose is pretty pointless, ime). I don’t understand the point of prescription ibuprofen. Maybe just taking fewer pills at a time?

I think the point is that it's in an 800mg pill, rather than having to take four at a time. But then Sheryl's pill is 600, so who knows.

Side note: JZ was completely possessed by glee when she got a Queen Bee pin in the mail after acing the Spelling Bee.
That makes me happy.
Pretty chill weekend here. We went out for breakfast this morning, so that was the big outing. It's just... hot.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I was invited to a job interview at the company where I'd be working if hired. Everything seemed fine until the interviewer, someone high in the company hierarchy, was called away before finishing the interview and asked me to wait until he got back. While he was gone I started reading the diplomas and certificates on his wall, and to my horror every other one was awarded from the Grand Poobah, or the second rank Poohbah of the KKK. He didn't come back and after ten minutes I walked out. If hired, I wouldn't have worked there.
Best wishes on the knee, Sheryl. Knees are stupid. Both of mine are borked, and have been since I was 18. I wish you better.
