from the 1...) If flavors can be expressed mathematically, then it's safe to say that French roast coffee + Wint-O-Green Life Savers = ass. Please take under advisement.

...to the 2...) Poor [livejournal.com profile] rafaela is sick unto misery with a +4 Cold of Ickiness, the kind where you basically have a honker full of pancake batter and no hope of a good night's sleep. She seems to be on the trailing end of it, though, so I'm hoping for the best. *hugs the Anna*

...to the 3...) Many thanks to [livejournal.com profile] chris_walsh for pointing me toward The Adventures of Boschen and Nesuko, an absolutely amazing web comic, very much not for the young'uns. Give it a look.

...to the 4) Why do my thighs still hurt today? Heck, why were they hurting to being with?

Dude, did you intend to open the floor to your flist speculating on why your thighs hurt? Because I bet I'm not the only one with a fully-not-G-rated Top 10 Reasons Why Slipjig's Thighs Hurt prepared in advance.

Um, okay, tactical error there. Right now, I'm hoping everyone will say, "Nahh, too easy," and walk away. *winces in trepidation*

But that was on purpose. The only reason I didn't say "slip you my 10 inches" is because I momentarily forgot how to strike.

And Boschen and Nesuko gets better.

I love that when one chapter premiered, [livejournal.com profile] setsuled said "There's blood and nudity on every page, and that's a guarantee."

...and by the way, I wasn't ever gonna go there re: 4). (See? I'm a GOOD friend!)

Ohh, yes. I kinda started in the middle before jumping back to the beginning. Really good stuff, that.

Often, when I'm about to become sick, my thighs and calves hurt. Since Anna is currently sick, that would be my guess.

I think Brian's right. Achy muscles are the first sign of the viral cold/flu crap.

Take as hot a bath as you can, and see if you can talk someone into doing this for you:

Lie down on your back, and have them put their hand on your achilles tendon. Have them apply light pressure and slide their hand from the ankle to the knee (Lotion will help with hair getting rubbed the wrong way and being annoying). Do this 4-5 times on each leg. Then, they should put their hand on the back of your knee and slide it upwards to your butt. Do this 4-5 times on each leg. Flip over and repeat on the upper thighs only. This isn't a deep tissue massage where the masseuse has to have a lot of strength; it can be done by most anyone, even a child, because it requires little pressure.

This is basically a type of lymphatic massage, where you're just trying to help the fluids in your lymph vessels move upwards to where they should empty out. I had one done after a surgery, where I was agonizingly sore afterwards, and she had me completely pain-free within half an hour.

If your back is sore, do the same thing, moving from mid-back upwards or downwards to shoulders or hips. Arms are also good to do if they are sore.

1: I KNOW that you are a good cook, so what led you to even attempt that horrible combination? Wintergreen stuff nauseates me by itself anyway. Blech.

Purely accidental: I took a swig of Anna's coffee before remembering I had the candy in my mouth. *shudder*

I'd assumed Wint-O-Green adds ass to many, many things.

That sentence had never been written before.

Certainly not by the Life Savers advertising department.

OK: another needed laugh. Thanks.

(Y'know, I like mint, I like LifeSavers, but the combo never worked for me...)

eeeg oog agh....with coffee? Eeeeeeeew!
It's like brushing your teeth with strong mint paste after
flossing with cinnamon oil flavored floss.Rinsing is horrible
when those oils combine.
You should have made cocoa instead:D.

Ecchh! Is it as bad as the orange juice/toothpaste one-two punch?
