Hey, they had those really awesome cookies at Whole Foods the other day! The butterscotch oatmeal ones? I saw them and thought of you.

Mmmm, oatmeal scotchies. ANNNNND, today I went to the grocery store and finally got sugar and flour and brown sugar! I already had oatmeal and eggs and butter and butterscotch chips. So I could MAKE them. Hotness.

But I think I'm going to bed soon. Maybe I'll make cookies tomorrow. I also need ot figure out what I need for pie, and go buy that.

Its 2:40am and I have to be up by 10am.

Well, me and an online friend have had some interesting emails with my father this weekend in which he tells my friend that my mom was blackmailing him into sex and tells me that he wishes he could have beaten my head in a few times before his ex-brother-in-law got the chance to do it 5 days before my first birthday.

Eeek? That's not going to win any fathering awards, for sure.

I, on the other hand, slept from like 7 PM until 6 AM, though I was up for an hour or so around 1 AM!?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I've been up since 4:00 am. My favorite breakfast place opens at 6:00 - I got there around 6:15 and the doors were still locked and half of the staff hadn't shown up yet. But I only had to wait a few minutes for them to let me in.

Well, at least you know your eggs were fresh!

I still haven't had any breakfast, but I plan on some soon. I've also got a throat-tickle thingie going and suspect it may be a cold trying to come on. Time for the zinc gum, but I'm going to eat first because those make the entire world taste weird....

Huh. I've never had zinc gum. Good luck with the not-getting-cold.

I'm watching the NOVA documentary (online) on the Intelligent Design court case: [link]

Cold-Eeez makes gum as well as zinc lozenges, which really do seem to work for me in terms of not only alleviating symptoms but shortening the process, especially in the run-up to the Actual Cold.

They'd make a great weightloss aid, too, since everything tastes off for a couple of hours after you've had them, even water.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I tried a zinc lozenge once, and could not handle the bad taste. Yuk!

I have big plans for the day. We'll see.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Yuck, indeed. Why not take a zinc supplement? I guess the lozenge works faster. Still, yuck.
