Thing 2
Hmm. I'm trying to decide if I've caught the plague or if I'm merely out of sorts because it's about to be that time again. I guess I'll know in the morning.
This is going to sound truly weird, but try zinc lozenges. Not zinc pills, they will not work for this, but the lozenges, and just take 'em as needed 'cause I'm told the effect is nearly instant. They're kind of useless for preventing colds or shortening the duration of colds which is what they're supposed to be used for, but a lot of women who took them for that reason found out by accident that they usually eliminate most or all unpleasant menstrual and premenstrual symptoms, to the point that a lot of ladies thought they were going to miss their period until it came.
I have freakishly misery-free periods to begin with, so I can't give you my testimonial, but I have recommended this to two writing buddies who both swear by it now.
I'm not actually sure I have the writing ability to portray this
If it's any solace, I say that about everything I try to write...
Morning, Cantinafolk. Apparently, it's 2C here, although it feels a lot colder.
A pox on the wind chill factor!
Remember that day I came in complaining it was -13 celsius? That's because officially speaking it felt like -22 with the wind chill.
Sidenote: I'm known in my circle of friends for being a wuss with the cold and I unzip my coat when it goes up to -2. Why yes, I do live in Canada. How did you know?
Today, I'll mostly be drinking green tea with orange and lotus flower
Holy crap, where you get that? I want some! Mrrrrrmmm!
MIT is offering course materials for free and they also have
courses on writing.
Dewd! Awesome!
I have ordinary standard, supermarket cheapest tea. I drink so much that paying out for expensive tea isn't worth it for me.
Ah, but black tea (including the orange pekoe grade which is considered plain old standard ordinary) increases your risk of kidney stones, while green tea decreases your risk of them.
I pay $0.98 for a box of 20 of the cheapest green teabags around here, so it might be worth checking out if you like the taste of green.
Definitely Poseidon. He's a right sod. He needs a good telling off.
I would say something in agreement but I'm afraid he'd hear me...
As much fun as that would be, having a small person with a pout following me around and being insufferable for the rest of the day would drive me nuts. She's already slightly miffed that she missed my birthday, so keeping on her good side is a must.
Man, what a little fascist
