Portland is always at the top of my dream-cities list, but then the West-Coastiness of it comes and slaps me in the face.

With tea-tea, I only sweeten if it's that or non-diary powder "lightener".

With non-tea-brewing-type stuff, I'll sometimes sweeten.

What's wrong with the West Coast? Hmm?

Yeah!?!? What's with the hatin'?

Cindy, I once had a tea vs. keyboard accident and a lot of my keys went wonky. They all fixed themselves except the apostrophe key, which still refuses to work unless I smash it with my fist.

That's my kind of apostrophe abuse, Jars.

As soon as the spill happened, I flipped the keyboard upside down, so that the water would come right back out. Then I shook it, and lightly banged it, just to make sure. Every once in a while, things still won't work for tick, then they work again.

I agree with this:

Well, different strokes and all that. But what I can tell you is that sugar in tea is bad and also wrong. Intolerent, moi?

...except when I'm sick with certain sicknesses, and then I agree with ita's comment:

Sometimes sweet milky tea (attained with condensed milk, optimally) is the cure for what ails you. Works well, in conjunction with a book, a comfy chair and a blanket to combat the pouts.

although I use regular milk and sugar, mainly because I'd never thought of trying it with the sweetened condensed. Now I'm having a Winnie the Pooh moment. Now I'm done.

t whinge I've had the crappiest little headache since last night. It's like a neck tension-fluid in ears-sinus-wind/air pressure induced little bitch, and I can't subdue it. I only felt good while I was in the shower. I'd take an anti-histimine, but sometimes they give me anxiety, and the pain is dull enough, that I'd rather have it, than anxiety. Also, sometimes anti-histimines backfire on my sinus stuff, particularly if I'm not feeling otherwise allergic to anything, and make my sinus headaches worse.

Can I stay in a hot shower for the rest of the day?

Whee! Just got a text from Pamela to see if I was up yet. Good thing I did my chores early. Pretty much only have to put sheets on my bed once they dry and a little more laundry. Off to shower and then we brunch.

Yay! Enjoy, Cass.

You people just aren't tense enough, present company excluded.

Drinking hot tea with Splenda and a dash of fat free milk Right Now, AIFG.

I use canned milk of the unsweetened sort and add sugar to taste.

This method, I find, is cheaper. Also, of course, how I grew up doing it, so habit.

Nicole is desecrating the tea.

East side!

Oh, wait, this isn't a gang war.

YET.
