The joys of ginger candy.

I cannot say enough good things about ginger candy. It's good for an upset stomach, chasing away the blues, and burning away a sore throat. It's a-fucking-mazing!

If you don't know what ginger candy is I'll be happy to share.

It's candied ginger. Good night everybody!

Seriously, you can get it in your local China Town or Japan town or possibly health food store. It's chewy and sticky on your teeth and the more you chew it and try to get it unstuck from your teeth the hotter it gets. As it desolves, all hot and soothing, your eyes might water, but let it happen.

It cures what ails ya.

I am so tired of being sick.

I think that not being able to sleep is part of it. Here's what happens: I can't sleep and I get weak and worn and then I get sick whereas I can do nothing but sleep then I get well and I can't sleep again. Lather, rinse, repeat.

I'm going to have to call my doctor and see if she has any ideas on what I can do. I don't want to add another RX to my daily regeme (is that how you spell that?) I already have problems remembering to take the happy drug.

Other news...

Do you think it's possible to change your life when you've lived half of it already?

Really, I'd like to know, as long as you don't tell me the Whistler's mother story.
