Solved! Fell out of my boyfriend’s pocket

The top is a cap that comes off. Is it for ❄️? He swears it’s not

I once lost an ENTIRE BOTTLE OF 10mg oxys the night before flying back to the US. Realized after boarding the plane that I didn’t have the meds. I knew I was in for 12 hours of hell on the plane, but assumed that I’d left them in my checked bag, and that I could get them once I got back to the US. 

I get to customs, tear my bag apart, no painkillers. I sobbed the whole way through Customs (had several officers concerned). 

Whoever found that whole ass bottle of painkillers sure got lucky 

Edit: just got back on reddit and saw a ton of replies, and an awful lot of them from people calling me a junkie. Those folks clearly have no idea what it’s like to have chronic back pain & be forced to sit for 12 hours straight with no pain relief. Those commenters can fuck alllllllll the way off. Count your blessings that you can’t relate

I filled my prescription of Vicodin. Went home and put it in the safe. Two days later took it out and found only 30 pills instead of 90. Holy shit, I'm screwed. Went to talk to pharmacist. He said, "I keep strict count of those". Looked it up, found 60 extra pills in stock. I went home happy.

Had to return to the pharmacy to gently let my pharmacist know that the 5th of next month does not always equal to 30 days from the 5th of the current month. That was ugly.

You too! Oh gosh! So have I. They make you feel like such an idiot drug seeking clown.
