Haha. I have more than enough tea to last a lifetime. And, I'll buy more before I'm close to out. XD

There's never too much tea! I'm not a heavy tea drinker but there is nothing worse than not having the one I want when I do want tea!

I have SO many kinds yet didn't have peppermint which is exactly what I wanted. I bought some even though I'm going through probably 10 different teas at the moment. It's so true, gotta have the exact one!

It's great to hear that you're picking up so fast.
@taarna23 Adding it yourself instead of buying stuff already salted would allow you to avoid unpleasant quantities.

@taarna23 Same. I cook with (what I find to be) enough salt but not gobs of it. I don't do an awful lot of prepared foods and some things that are naturally salty, like cheese, I can't eat. But olives and nuts? Love 'em. That'll do. OH. Salsas too.

@Kes Thanks! I'm a bit surprised I'm already feeling this much better, and I know that I will have headache days again eventually. BUT. It was pretty awesome to go raspberry picking in full sun without explosive consequences and play a 3D video game with my husband without feeling the need to vomit.

@The Stranger Aww! I've been lurking. Approving threads. TRYING to keep up in the staff boards (not very successfully, lol). I've remained around in some capacity but I've needed to spend my energy on cooking food, walking outside when I can, and keeping my house in some respectful level of tidiness.

I hope the treatments help.

The best treatment for my migraine was beating the crap out of my neigbour because he started doing DIY works at 7:00 in the morning after I came home at 6:00 from night shift

Well, I could elaborate on my experience but I was going through a divorce and just super depressed. Ultimately, when I first came here, I had to have surgery a couple of times, for other stuff, but I haven't had a head ache like that since, so maybe 8 months free of head pains? I feel way better than I did.

Oh no! I know how you feel. Last year I got a migraine and it just never went away like it was supposed to. I'm now on a lot of pain medication just to get it to ignorable levels. I hope you have a lot better luck with yours.

hope you get it figured out! I recently went to the neurologist for a similar issue. My migraines are all optical, most of the time.

I'm lactose intolerant which is why I get coconut milk. Funnily enough, whey isolate has almost no lactose. Too bad that I find it disgusting. I always have to add so much flavoring to tolerate it. I like eggwhite protein sometimes but it's pretty expensive and...I can make an omelette. XD

LOL! Yeah, no point in eating\drinking something if you find it so disgusting you need to add a bunch of flavourings to it. I've always believed you should enjoy what you eat. If you can't stand the taste of something, chances are you'll stop consuming it even if you're told it's good for you.

Food first.

Sounds like one of those spelling bee words.

OK. What is the definition of our new word?

Wrickled: A wicked, wrinkled object.

They'll never take me alive!

We miss you too!

Hello there!!

Haha, for sure! Trying to rearrange how I spend my time doing things but as of late I just check Classifieds to make sure it isn't on fire. c;

Welcome back! Now post a food picture please.

Alright, alright. If you say so!

LMAO! I mean, the whole building can hear it but it just HAD to be the unit above me!? This apartment is cursed. I was able to fall back asleep till 10, but I'm still short about two hours of sleep.

What I'd like to know is: why was someone using a jackhammer inside an apartment? xD In all seriousness, there's nothing worse than having loud sounds invade your home like that. Never had someone use a jackhammer above me, but I have had to deal with people blasting out drum and bass at 5am. Hope you get some peace and quiet tonight.

They're doing a kitchen remodel and I guess for some reason it can't happen any later than the buttcrack of dawn.

Also YES. Red velvet cookies. I can't even describe the level of excellency.

Aww you guys now I want giant cookies My coffee was great but now it sucks without cookie company.

*Takes a cookie out of the cookie jar* It's a good way to avoid temptations *eats the cookie*
I'm kidding, I don't have a cookie jar. I don't even have cookies. Here.
During a night shift its really important to have stimulus to keep one alert. Maybe they should hire someone for the night shift, or have one of those machines. People often talk near the coffee machine.

Thanks! I'm feeling a bit better, just still fatigued and slightly nauseated. Lingering coughs are the worst!

I'm glad you're feeling somewhat better. Hope you're getting lots of love while you're ill. Yeah, especially when the cough keeps triggering your asthma. >.< I think the cough is caused by mucus from the nose building up at the back of the throat. That's what it feels like, anyway.

The cat is pretty much glued to me, so she's doing an amazing job!

Oy, I know that pain. I have a pretty runny sinus at times and can have a big cough without even being ill.

Congrats and if I had a car I would BEEP BEEP you back xD

Real adults end their sentence with BEEP BEEP!

A song for your car while driving then! Beep beep!

I really can't enjoy walks or hiking without my orthopedic shoes. the others have poor support and it wears me out way sooner. in those shoes I can easily go an hour without rest

At least you're standing. After any long run I end up horizontal.

I take it winter is fading on your side.

New or second hand? Used car shopping is painful. But when I bought my first car, I had already seen it on their website, so checking it out in-store was just to make sure it ticked all the boxes, and the test drive was really just a formality.

The used cars in the model I'm leaning toward seem to really retain their value and are short supply, so they're not much cheaper than new. I'd prefer to buy a used one but I don't know if it's worth the headache of actually finding one. I may go through with getting new. I have the money but I've never made a purchase like this so the thought of that much money coming out of my investments makes me wheeze. XD

http://www.lovemeow.com/cat-mom-stray-kittens-foster-2551948743.amp.html read this interspersed in your search.

My mom bought me slipper "boots" and they're super amazing.

Are they large enough to make a cocoon out of? Are you going to turn into a Moth or a Butterfly?

At least for my legs! XD
I'm probably more of a moth. I'm definitely the type that would probably walk into a light pole.

Let the spice flow

I was going to say, when I started reading I thought it was going to be a Dune reference!

Although it's true that I don't really tolerate spicy food, I actually don't like the TASTE of jalapenos or wasabi. But I'm glad you're enjoying it.

My preferred pepper is the serrano. A small amount of heat and a good flavor.

Funnily enough, serranos are hotter than jalapenos. I think it's just that they're so dang tiny that they get dispersed in a chili or curry quite easily. I honestly just LOVE peppers and chilies. Bell peppers, banana peppers, wax peppers. I really love grinding my own chili powder out of dried chilies. It's the best, omg. XD

LOL! I love your status posts, they're so funny XD

Depending on the flavour of ice cream, you may indeed gain the fruits of happiness.

I had dunkaroos gelato today. :')

It's an adorable cut and it suits you well! ^^b Bye bye heavy hair migraines.
Finding the right stylist is challenging

Thank you! It is! I think the issue was finding a stylist near me who embraces hair chaos like I do. I'd describe it to others and show pictures of the last time I had the cut, but so many of the people I was going to before were compelled to make the ends completely even (it's what most people want). This stylist really embraced my vision of hair that looks better the more it's messed up.

@Ms Littlefish Awwh. You look so happy. Keep on smiling.

Haha! I was just taken by surprise and amazed at how thoroughly well @Vexed understands this character. I think it has been my desktop background ever since I got it.

@Ms Littlefish That was nice of her

Aw, shucks~

@The Stranger I have a TON of freckles on my limbs and chest, but only a few on my face. So, if those count!?

@starlight dream Aveeno makes a baby sunscreen that's all zinc and REALLY intense, so I'll use that for running. I'll look like a fool when I'm running, that's fine. As long as I don't burn. XD

@starlight dream the SPF factor in makeup or skin care only has that amount of protection for the whole bottle, not per application.

@IAmJakeSauvage I see. It's not a great option then.

@Ms Littlefish Hehe If you burn easily, you gotta learn how to run, no choice!
