Hot Chocolate + Espresso = no help for stress
Funny how despite all our time-saving devices, we get progressively more stressed. I don't think I've been this sick in a while, but my workload virtually tripled overnight. Thus there is no possible manner in which I can drop off working. Bah. But I discovered the joy of hot chocolate and espresso. Chocolate covered espresso beans are decent, but when it's nice and hot in the morning.... mmmmm.
*insert sounds of rumbling happiness here*
In other news, I made these most excellent brownies with about two pounds of bitter-sweet chocolate. Been subsisting off of those, jasmine tea, and the occasional block of cheddar cheese. When I go shopping, I always go to TJ's and buy a pack of mochi ice cream cakes. Those are so unbelievably delicious. You all must try them sometime. ^__^
Sent off a poem and my short story back in August to be considered for publication. Hoping all goes well, but no word till February. Hrmph, lazy editors! Perhaps I could bribe them with lunch....
All you in the hurricane's footsteps - be safe. Contact me if you need anything.
