Random shit about this weekend

[innerslytherin]

In no particular order.

I tried cooked radishes for the first time yesterday. They were delicious. I usually just eat them raw, but we have a LOT of them, so we thought we'd try something new.

Unfortunately I have a ridiculous gag reflex, and when I took my pills last night, I had trouble, and ended up throwing up. Including the radishes, so I'm not feeling very radish friendly at the moment. And in the meantime I lost my Effexor, but I wasn't sure I'd lost it. So tonight I'm going through withdrawal, because Effexor has a ridiculous halflife. So I feel horrible and like I'm going to throw up more.

C comes back to work tomorrow after a week off. Thank God.

Played a bit of Warcraft this afternoon. Had fun.

Mom is applying for a job, and I also spent some time fighting with my computer and hers, trying to solve file compatability issues so I could use my laser printer instead of their ink-jet to print her resume and such.

That's really just about it. Sunday nights always make me stupidly depressed. Someday I will have a job I love to get up for. Like...writing. >.>

--Exactly. And even if I never have that writing job I crave so much there is still hope that I will have one I love more than the one I got right now.

*hugs* Oh lord, I know the Effexor withdrawal. I am so sorry. I hope you find it soon!

Oh, ha, when I said "lost", I meant that euphemistically. >.> I've taken tonight's dose, so tomorrow I'll be all right.

Sorry about the medication woes.

I know what you mean about jobs. I'm willing to accept anything at the moment, but, oh, how I long for a job that will satisfy and challenge me.

Good luck to you on finding it.

Yeah, when I got this job a year and a half ago, it was after almost two years of unemployment or under-employment. I was miserable without money and mooching off the parents again, and I was pleased to have any job that utilized at least some of my talents and pays the bills.

Now, though, while I love my boss and think she is worth her weight in gold, I really would like to have something I enjoy.

Can I ask how you cooked them? Soft all the way through?

Ugh, horrible. :( I hate how meds (and missing them) can make things worse.

Trim leaves and roots from radishes, slice them. Melt a tablespoon of butter in a skillet, then add the radishes and onion slices if you want. Then cook for about three minutes. Add half a cup of chicken stock and simmer with the lid on until tender. (About 3 or 4 minutes.) Then take the lid off and let the juices evaporate. My mother says this is called reducing. Whatever. :P

They were very good.
