Today in a nutshell:

eruthrosWell, I made jambalaya (yay!) which I had intended to make for Mardi Gras, but sorta didn't, Mardi Gras being a Tuesday and me working Tuesday nights. This was the No Red Meat version of jambalaya we make, with chicken andouille sausage and shrimp. Mmmmm. Also, I made it very spicy, and very thick, and browned the tomato paste and everything. The spicy was especially good because it meant I could taste it, which brings me to item to on the list of Today.
I sorta got this massive, massive cold-ish sinus-y thing, with itchy eyes and heart pounding and shortness of breath and blindness when I stand up, which is fun in a way that's not. I drank a loooooot of black tea, which was probably a bad move, as I turned rather a bit more loopy than one likes to be in conversation, and did things like refer to High Drama and start humming Phantom of the Opera songs and generally made a pain in the ass of myself. I hope to feel better tomorrow (oh, pleaseplease) because I have to teach, and I am so not looking forward to dealing with kidlets when I'm fuzzy.
Also, the USPS has generally been so fast at the Netflix turnaround that when my returned DVDs take more than a day or two to get in, I start wondering if they're lost. Also I want more DVDs. *g* I am waaaaaiting for my next set of Stargate SG-1 episodes!
Also, this story makes me very, very happy. I want them to collect the art. I think you could do a fabulous PoMo gallery exhibit with it. Especially if, as![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
friede suggested, you passed out crayons instead of pencils.
Also, there has been a bit of Drama in my life lately, but I try very had to be a non-drama person. (Anyway, my personal policy is "if everyone's still alive, it can't be that bad." *happily ignores drama*)

1 mug hot water (as for tea)
2 tsp apple cider vinegar
2 tbsp honey
Taste and adjust until you like it.
Drink often - natural antibiotics and strong fumes clear you up and make things much better.

Also, good recipe -- I like peppermint tea for that, too.
