I can report from recent personal experience that chocolate does not, in fact, cure stomach flu. Rather the revese.
I ate apple sauce and a plain bagel for lunch, in continuance of my "beige food makes the tummy be quiet" plan.
Bar maid! Bring me stronger ale! And some plump, succulent babies to eat!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Well sure, if they were *frozen.* Next time try cooking them....
I knew there was another step to that.

Go Cheerios! Choose Cheerios!
(My last bout with Return of the Stomach Contents was assuaged by eating Cheerios one at a time, dry, while watching the entire 4 hours of The Great Escape. If not for vomiting, I would never get around to re-watching that movie!)

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Cindy, chocolate cures everything.

"Except that."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I have a cup 'o' noodles lying about my desk. But suddenly, I am craving candy.
I never thought I could feel smug for having BOTH ramen noodles AND Russell Stover chocolate in my desk.

Jesse, stop taunting me with your MSG laden Ramen.

Sorry, Cindy. You can't have any anyway, since I'm going to eat it. Too much sugar. Must balance with salt.

Mmmmm, MSG. I will go "cook" those noodles now.

Why can't they make a sticker that will stick ON when I want it to, and come OFF when I want it to?
No, the post-it will not solve my problem. I need a sticker that stays on for a year or three, THEN comes off.
Yes, I spent 6 years in a PhD program so I could spend my afternoons scraping stickers off of books.
