In search of consistent food
Sep. 22nd, 2005 09:50 pmI couldn't finish dinner. It kept changing flavors on me. I had one baby carrot go from tasting like the things you bite down on to get your mouth x-rayed to tasting like aluminum. Baby carrots are three bites if one is being dainty. None of those bites tasted like carrot. I should eat something before I go to bed, so that I don't wake up at 4:30 tomorrow morning ready to chew through my pillow and/or pass out on the kitchen floor. I have no idea what I will be able to eat, though. I am entirely out of ideas, because whenever I think, "that would be good," my brain continues, "if it would stay still."
There are worse things to have going weird on you, but I really don't recommend this one, if someone gives you the choice.
It was a pretty good day with some highlights that were better than that, up until around suppertime. I don't mean to say that the whole day was bad and upsetting. Just the latest bits with food in.
I am in the middle of packing to go to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
scottjames's wedding this weekend. Dorothy Dunnett, The Book of Reykjaholar, Gil's All Fright Diner, Selma Lagerlöf, Orca, and Sean Stewart. Yes, the obvious Sean Stewart: Galveston. (It, like the Brust, is a reread.) Also some clothes and stuff. markgritter and I have both been to Chicago, and while we haven't seen even close to everything there, we also have limited energy and a half-trained dog to mind. So...take-out Chinese, some local park, and the interior of our hotel room, is the basic plan. It claims to have free connectivity, but I have no idea whether that means I'll be on lj like crazy or once for five minutes Saturday morning.
I didn't make the perfect auxiliary wedding present for these two. We've already sent their real wedding present, but if I'd had time, a loaf of Guinness gingerbread would seem really appropriate. But I don't have time, or rather, I don't have time plus energy, and I figured they would rather have me in non-zombie form than bearing tasty Guinness gingerbread.
I could be wrong about that, though. It's awfully good stuff.
