Feeling slightly more rational today and less likely to foam at the mouth and dribble on the keyboard with rage. Which is good because my ulcer medication can’t sustain too much anger without my body going into terminal meltdown. On the topic of which I had to start taking Losec again after some bloody awful pain on the weekend. Seems to be having the right response and I feel a hell of a lot better but I suspect further angst and pain are only a moment away if I get dropped another piece of crap work with a crapper deadline. Ah well can’t be helped *big sigh*
But otherwise world is a charming and happy place. We’re having some of Lu’s relatives over on Sunday for a BBQ lunch – for which we do so hope it doesn’t rain. So am madly trying to think about what to cook for the clan – who are known to eat all and sundry out of house and home like a plague of hungry locusts. So current menu for clan is: BBQ kebabs and sausages for the kiddies, taboli salad, pasta salad, potato salad, greek salad, chips, dips, and bread with fruit and ice cream for the kiddies for dessert. Which means I’ll be cooking for a fair chunk of Saturday – which is good – because I find cooking very enjoyable. Thinking of which it is almost heading toward winter here and that means it’ll be cold enough for soup! I very much enjoy cooking and it’s one of those soothing meals that with toast is great for a miserable winter night after you’ve trudged home in the rain. If I feel like typing it up I’ll post my leek and potato soup recipe up sometime.
Also have a read of Laurel’s diary entitled Inner Lemming – she’s kinda cool.
Listening to: Nena, New Order, The Queers – yummy yummy punk rock girls – and the whirr of air-conditioning.
