leave it at that

Dear [certain LJ community commenters]:
Look, I don't bitch about your beliefs or harp on about how I think the world should be as compared to how you think the world should be. Don't do it to me. Everyone has different beliefs. Everyone does different things. You might think your way is the best and only way, but guess what? Not everyone does. If you don't like my paganism or omnivorism, that's fine. But don't ram your monotheism or vegetarianism down my throat. If I want to stop eating meat, I'll stop eating meat. If I want to start believing in a single deity, I'll start believing in a single deity. Shut the fuck up, get off your high horses, and don't bother me again.

lead weight

Adam's Boston trip ended yesterday. But instead of heading straight to New York City, he had to return to Virginia to get some new equipment. So, my husband came home last night. *happy smile*
However, he has to leave for New York City tomorrow afternoon, and will be in NY until Wednesday. *unhappy smile*
But he will only be there a few days, and he bring home New York bagels and the residual energies of the city where I grew up. *optimistic smile*

My stomach is badly irritated; possibly from something I ate. I was up most of the night in the bathroom. I called in to work and told them I was sick, without going into gory details. I slept until noon, while Adam ran errands. I finally ate something around three, when he came back; and my stomach and colon are slightly better now. We made chicken matzo ball soup, and beef brisket, and baked breaded chicken. Dinner for the next few days, with Adam being gone.

I am also laid low by a severe fibro flare. I've been phenomenally fatigued all day. My shoulders, lower back, and knees are screaming. The rain is not helping. The muscles affected by the cerebral palsy are clenching and spasming so badly they're burning. My body seems to be under the impression that it ran several miles in the rain, without stretching or warming up. Mom had sent me some ribose capsules a while back, having read an article that said that ribose was good for fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue. I took four capsules today. I do have a bit more stamina and feel less useless, but I can't say much more.

Modern caffeinated alcoholic fruity nectar

We made a pot of coffee. We added a can of sweetened condensed milk. Then we added Godiva chocolate liqueur to our individual mugs.
And then, Adam took pineapple chunks and soaked them in Godiva chocolate liquor and Curacao liqueur.
Mmm.
Y'all should try it.
