return of the dinner

[maggiekarp]

Woke up three times during the night by something trying to climb out of my throat. I can't remember ever feeling like it before, I wasn't queasy, the watery mouth feeling was replaced by a large amount of slimy, very salty spit-water suddenly filling my mouth, and my organs were making gladiator noises. I probably should have just let myself throw up, but I still haven't learned how to do that gracefully.

I guess people weren't meant to eat two whole artichokes.

Meanwhile yay gramparents are in town, yay barbeque at grandpa-bro's later, yay other family there too

As much as they jokes about Nick being put on the spot, it's been so long since I've seen a lot of these people that I'm kinda nervous too.
