Needled!
05.14.07 (12:46 pm)   [edit]

Okay, not yet. I went to the acupuncturist on the weekend, and had my consultation. She thinks I have a liver yin and blood deficiency. My mom's always said she thinks I don't have enough blood.

To start, she told me to take a liquid iron supplement. Would that make my pee really yellow?? She's also sent me a list of food to avoid and emphasize. Luckily, a lot of the foods to avoid are ones I don't really like anyway, but I don't want to give up dairy or shellfish! And foods to emphasize -- they're definitely ones I don't normally eat. The list includes legumes, sea vegetables, wheatgrass...all kind of granola-y to me!

Mother's Day was okay. I went out for brunch with my mom, and then we did some shopping. Then she came over for dinner. She actually said to Mr. Nick that I was a good cook. I thought my dinner could have been better.

I spent about $70 on chocolate on Saturday :-/ Most were gifts but I got a little something for myself. I've been thinking about what to bring for Mr. Nick's family as gifts when we visit. I asked him if his sister was okay with the kids eating chocolate or candy, and he said yes. Then he stole my gift idea!! But I paid for it. I am staking the claim on this one!!

Our flights to and from Spain are booked! Hotels are next!! We're also going camping this weekend. I haven't camped since university. I am kind of looking forward to it. Mr. Nick sure loves it.

Thanks! I am supposed to go shopping for warm pants for the weekend?? That does not sound right to me at all. I used to have fleece pants, too. D'oh!

You should inform your acupuncturist and your mom that Romanian scientists have perfected a tiny cog - small enouhg to be held by an ant - to form part of a minuscule vehicle that travels through the humans bloodstream, seeks out trouble yins and spots and finds solutions. Rather like a sort of microscopic George Bush, only it finds solutions.

The idea is an echo of the old film 'Fantastique Voyage', where a shrunken medical team was injected into a patient named Rose to neutralise her blood deficiency.

The invention is based on a minute Japanese car, fully functioning but smaller than a grain of rice. Unfortunately though, it suffered a setback when it left unattended-near an artery or a strong muscle, and some bacteria smashed the back window and nicked the stero.

PS. By the way, Romania is a wonderful country.

There's no such thing as too much chocoate. So whether Mr. Nick stole your gift, give the chocolate, anyway. I'm glad you saved a bit for yourself. Send some to me, please. ;-D

Mom said you were a good cook! Excellent...praise from Mom!

I'm not crazy about the emphasis list, either.
