What are you gonna eat for dinner?

(I get way too talky about when I actually DO cook, instead of subsisting on boring chicken breasts and salad.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I try not to think about dust mites.

Deemed allergic. May be contributing to migraines.

Honestly, it's the first thing in a year+ that anyone's diagnosed me with that might have a bearing. I'm way too beat down to be hopeful, but I'm aiming at due diligence.

Yikes and hopefully it will do something. I was thinking (or, you know, not) only of the creepy crawly factor, not at all the health part.

I'm having chicken dijon on egg noodles. With maybe a salad.

I just put a dust mite cover on my mattress. When do I start to feel better?

Not tonight, because you stirred up a big batch of dust mite, uh, dust, putting on the cover. But soon.

That sounds good. A little pale, perhaps (me & my weird issues) but tasty. eta: the chicken, not the dust mites.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, allergies are something deal-with-able. Hopeful you can get some relief.

I am having Dutch-Amish chicken with egg noodles. It was such a simple recipe I was able to get up and about and cook it and tumble back into bed. It is tasty. Total comfort food. And it made a huge freaking pan, so I can eat it for lots of meals with minimal effort.

Well, the room is also vacuumed.

Vacuum 2-3 times a week? Aside from my laziness, it'd probably all happen on the weekend, since I seem to be spending vanishingly little time at home during hours when a vacuum cleaner isn't intrusive.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

ita, there are sprays you can use on mattresses and other surfaces that kill the mites or some sucha nd then you vaccuum them out.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

This is where the Roomba comes in handy. Not as powerful as a stand-up vacuum, but more than made up for by the fact that it doesn't hate vacuuming.

I have the allergy covers on the mattress and all the pillows, but I don't have Tempurpedic anything, so I don't know how naturally dust-resistant it is.
