The older you get, the more pills it seems you've got to take. Nobody likes big pills -- hard to swallow and all -- but at least those you can cut or otherwise shatter. And if you happen to drop one, at least the clunk you hear makes it easy to find.
But those small tiny pills the pharmacy sometimes gives you -- you know the ones you have to put your glasses on to see -- they're just plain evil. And should you happen to drop one, well good luck. They don't make a peep when they land. These pills cleverly find their way into tiny crevices totally inaccessible by human hands. Even worse, sometimes they land beside your foot only to be crushed whilst you crouch down to find your medicine, with every bright annoying light on in the place.
We expect to find a lot of pills around the house someday when we move or have a deep clean. Then again, we may find lots of pocket change and other goodies as well.
