3 Meals a Day? I’ll Take It.
So I am indeed alive.
While its a beautiful day out, needless to say I haven’t left the house much. I have a sun rash which needs some time to clear up, and along with the dizziness its best I properly give my body time to heal. I’ve spent more than enough time outside this week and I think a day off on the couch being pampered is duly needed. Besides for the first time in a week I smell somewhat decent and I don’t want to ruin that.
While it was a tough go, the first meal of the day, the egg sandwich, did stay down. There were some intestinal effects, as others predicted, but it was well well worth it. If not the best breakfast I’ve ever had, though it was damn good, it was definitely the most cherished.
More importantly though for the first time in a week I had three square meals, drank something other than water, and haven’t thought of mussels in hours. There was a time (yesterday) when they were haunting my dreams.
I’m taking the rest of the night off, to try and get the soot out of my hands, but I’ll be back up and running tomorrow. There is a lot of stuff to tie up, like my thoughts on some of the comments that came in. Oh, I definitely have a few favorites, so prepare to be mocked.
So until then, enjoy your bed, because I know I’ll be enjoying mine.

I may be dumber for having followed your adventures, Barbarian, but I’ve enjoyed every minute of it.
Of course, I didn’t have to eat any mussels (or conch) so it was easy for me to enjoy it, but still.
Great read…can’t wait for your next adventure. Whatever it is, it must include Grandma…
